I really haven't the slightest clue at all. I started using internet when I was like 10 or something. The first email I used was netscape only cuz I shared email with my parents. The first email of my own was with hotmail. Beyond that I really can't remember much of my early internet life. Wow! Good question though. I have never even thought of this before now.

i really haven't the slightest clue,too.But i remembered i wanted to know more about this world and then i began to use a chatting tool-ICQ. Oh, it is a cool tool.All Americans were using it that time.Then i found a new chatting tool.It was QQ.Do you know QQ?It was a classic chatting tool in China.But i think the first email i used is Hotmail.It is so powerful.Today i am using it. Maybe you can visit my blog:Http://kinstrace.blogspot.com.

I started using internet about 11yrs ago. I was too naive back then, but i was determined to learn how to use it. My cousin was the first to introduce me in the web world. He said make some email so i can send you some pictures through there, i was so amazed! My first mail was from hotmail. Then i made one in yahoo. Now, i only used yahoo mail, then theres gmail. There so much to learn and so much to read in the web. I have come a long way and im glad, coz i met my fiance through the net. :D

Ok. Well this certainly brings back some memories! I do not recall the actual sites I first visited; but I do remember the first thing I searched for and the first document I printed! I am somewhat embarassed and amused to say that the very first search term I entered was "boobs"! lol. Sad but true! The very next thing I searched for and then printed was a document called "The Blue Book" which contained UFO files from the 40's onwards that had finally been de-classified. I was into this type of thing at the time so was very excited to be able to print it off to read!

That is not a hard one for me it was the ISP's (Internet Service Provider) homepage and I won't write it's name because I dislike that corporation and it was back in 1996.

I am not sure but I think the first website I ever visited was Millsberry. My friend showed it to me in like 2nd or 3rd grade. I had a lot of fun playing the games and buying virtual stuff. Millsberry's getting really old now. Not a lot of people play it anymore. I gave up my account and can't remember the password anymore.

I remember being so excited to access a LIBRARY online. I had a printer and being afraid I would forget what titles were there, I decided to print out the Contents page. Trust me..... when the printer just kept going and going and going ...I went into a panic. Shades of I Love Lucy and the popped corn fiasco! Never thought to pull the plug or remove the remaining paper which eventually ran out. What was I printing? The contents of The Library Of CONGRESS!! LOL Guess in my defence I can tell you I got my 1st computer for my 11 yr old grand daughter.....she had to teach me how to turn it on and use it. (at almost 60 yrs of age) Ten years later it is my daily escape and trusted companion!

That question is really difficult as I have been using the computer for about 18 years now.I do remember being very facinated with the internet.I am not positive but I think it was napster or a site like that,have they been around that long? I know that I was very jealous of my brother because he got a new computer and he downloaded a bunch of songs that I really liked.

I started to learn about the internet and its websites when I was working about 15 years ago. I needed to have an personal e-mail account of my own so I can send resumes to companies. Hotmail was the widely used back then so it was the first website I visited.

Hmmm.. I first had an account in Yahoo i guess. Actually not one account. Two i guess. When I first started to work on Internet, I was actually so addicted. I just wanted to go online and keep chatting. I had so many Online friends. Then later only I realized the real use of it. Then I was using it properly. Hehe. Happy mylotting.
