How old were you when you started using the Internet??

I know the internet when I'm old enough age about 28 years, first I knew the internet make your email address and chat in MIRC it is still remembered until now

Oh geez - now I'm feeling so old - hee hee!! I'm in my early 40's right now, but I didn't start going on the internet until my mid 20's. I had a job where I didn't need to be online - and then I finally bugged my boss get us online because we DID need to get online. I mostly went online to email everyone - continuing on with my letter writing - except not snail mailing anymore. My daughter is 5 and she has grown up with the computer . . . she already has her favorite sites and knows her way around the web - scary!!! My 8 month old son is on one particular kids site where smashing the keyboard makes "something happen" - so even he knows about computers already!!

If I'm able to recall correctly, I was about 16 years old when we first got the internet into our house. I started off using both AOL and Prodigy. I used AOL to play the games that they offered and I used Prodigy for the chatrooms. I got addicted to it fairly quickly. We'd had a computer in our home since I was eight years old, but when I was eight years old the internet wasn't something that was offered to ordinary people. Now that I have two children of my own they are both already using the internet. I have a great kid's browser installed on the computer that they use that only allows them to go to kid safe sites. They are seven and three years old.

I was around 7 years old. I was getting really fascinated with computers at that age and here I am still in front of a computer lol good times... good times :D

I've known what is internet from 1993... and I'll die if one day the World goes without internet :)).

I started using the internet when I was about 5, I remember going to a christmas party and joining a local network connected game of Quake, the old style quake... I caught on about 10 mins in and got to the top of the "kill charts" my dad took me around the party and showed me all of the office working guys 25-40 yr olds who I beat... I felt pretty accomplished =)

I was not that young, I was 17 when i started using the internet and I was not that very interested at all, I find it very odd now, how come I was not interested before? hahaha. Whenever I think then why I was not into it. I remember that I was very busy singing. but now I love internet so much!

hmmm that was long time ago.. I guess I started when i was in my freshman year in college, 17 years old??? And like you I started with chatrooms like mirc and yahoo chat. there wasn't so much scam over the internet back then, unlike now.

I was a late bloomee for my introduction to the internet. i didn't know much about computers until i was in my mid thirties. The internet was a whole new world to me. It is a world I am very at home with now.

For me when I was in high school day's I'm 17 years of age until now I spent every day in the internet.

I was about 19 years old to start use the internet, I remembered I went to school to learn knowledge of computer. First time I used internet to play game, it's so fancy.

i was 21 years old when i started using net....it was just because i was doing a computer course and i'd seen there and after that so many years i didn't use net so much only i just see my results sometimes....emails and ecards etc...but now i use it regularly...

I was about to 15 year old when i started using internet.......

It was year 1999 when the internet hit our city. i was 14 years old that time. I just do what my friends do. We started playing need for speed and it was really fun. Then later on we were chatting at MIRC. I could barely remember it now. I had lot of chat mates then. I had my first email account at yahoo by year 2000 and until now i'm still using that account.

I was about 20 years old when I started using the internet (about 1992). The internet was nothing like it is today. Not many websites and all of the websites had IP addresses and not domain names. The chat rooms and newsgroups were all DOS based instead of window based. I have seen it change so much since then. I cannot imagine life without it now.

Hi, I was about 18 years old when I first started using computers. After one year I knew about internet but still couldn't use it efficiently. It is after 2005 when I became an expert in handling computers. I didn't have a modem of my own. My friend sometimes shared a modem with me. Then I bought internal modems. It was a dial up connection. No one believes that I actually started my blogging with that dial up connection. I have done many researches and downloaded and read some really valuable books with that dial up connection. Soon my requirements went up and I had to go for a broadband connection. I still use the broadband connection. Thanks. God bless you

i was 14 yrs old when i start that was 14 yrs ago. i asked my parents for my 14th birthday to hooked me up! so i got 1 yr unlimited internet. i was so happy! but i do have curfews on weekdays. but not on weekends! happy day to all!!

I remember this incident. My brother asked me to join a crash course in computers basic. It was Q basic. I dint know what it was, the trainer was teaching me programming when i didnt know how to switch on the pc. I was so scared that i started running away from computers. Then took the initiative and learnt to use computers when i was 21.

hmmmmmmmmmmm......I would have to say I was I was about 9. So I've been using the internet for 8 years =]
