Hello guys,

So even though we act like professional users nowadays, there was a time not too long ago that internet was a new thing for us. Anyone having hard time to recall the sound of those 56 K modems dialing up? Yeah it's not another life.

So just for the sake of conversation in a nostalgic taste, what was the 1st internet site you have visited, clicked that enter after typing?

Mine was Beşiktaş's web page. I was a lot hooligan-ner fan back in the day than I am now. Goin' into fights'n all. So that was the 1st. We had internet café's in here since internet and personal gear was a bit expensive and luxury to own back then. I sat on the computer. I knew how to use it from earlier experiences including my father's work and education, then I asked myself what site I should visit. And then I logged in to Beşiktaş's page. It's the sports club that Deron Williams played in with success like scoring 50 in one game during the latest lockout.
 
Free-***-pics. Com
 
One of those crappy Geocities pages. School related. We had to look up example color palette wheels or something for a desktop publishing class.
 
Mine were back in the dial up days when you'd use your modem hooked up to your phone line and dial a phone number to get to the site you wanted.

I think it was a place called The Privy Ledge and I'd also go to the SLTrib website when it was dial up.
 
Technically, it was the hamster dance. Someone showed it to me once.

But on my own PC, it was Yahoo. Their games section was ahead of the curve. That and kjzz.com
 
56K? Hell, I remember, 9600, 14.4, 28.8!

Anyway, I don't remember my first website but Im sure it was aol.com, netscape.com or something equivalent. I do remember going on some Audiophile BBS boards before the "real" internet. That said, my internet innocence was lost after visiting stileproject.com.
 
Netscape. But I definitely remember going to the css website for skateboards and twsnow.com
 
Was probably a university because they were about the only people that had websites in the early days, but not sure which one. Back in 1994 or 1995.
 
nba.com

Back then only companies had the internet (in 95 in Jordan), and I would get on my dad's work computer and print out hundreds and hundreds of sheets of stats and player bios (on those slow *** printers) so I can take my time to read when I get home. I also tried sex.com and other such things as soon as my father left the room.

I also remember having a a 3 inch stack of chess strategies printed out. No wonder my dad doesn't like me.
