        What year was it when any of you first used the internet, or any semblance of it?

        For me it was around 1994 or 95 using windows 3.0.

          Late '93/early'94 for me in 7th grade at school. We had it at our family business in 1996, but I don't think we had it at home until about 1999.

                    I think we first got dial up around 94-95 so I was around 10 years old. I didn't really start using it a lot til later on AOL where I was a big pimp playa. A/S/L? Yeah, I lied every time as did everyone else on AOL.

                      I used AOL in the late 90's to tag a girlfriend from junior high that I missed out on when we were dating. Shoulda left that one alone. Hindsight is 20/20!

                          Actually I didnt have to lie. I was right up all the little hoodrats alleys back then (pun intended).

                              I only started using the web when I came to the U.S.A. sometime around 1997.
