It's really good for a writer. How was your first time using the Internet?

I was in college when I first used the internet. I was at awe when I first used it. It was a like a magic wand for me.I always wondered how are these things possible.

It was the same for me. I was fascinated by how easy and fast I can get hold of information.

For our work, we used the Internet to buy shares on the financial market.

stock/financial market changes are very fast, so it's good that you already have office Internet back then,

@hexeduser22 We had Internet as soon as it was available. Before Internet you did everything on the phone.

One mylotter here also used the Internet to create an e-mail too. E-mail replaced traditional mails easily.

My kids were using computers at school and we bought one for them. They taught us old folks how to use it. The mail sending and getting got us hooked. Whenever I have a problem with my iPad or computer I ask for help from the kids. Now, years gone, we use it for business and we play on it and I enjoy a few sites like this. Email was the first thing that told us we needed this thing.
