Wow, I don&#039;t know why this comment wouldn&#039;t post before.  I spent about ten minutes trying to re-post my comment and it kept saying it didn&#039;t work and then I tried to visit your blog post and it said site error: risk of malicious attacks!? :o ...maybe my browser&#039;s security is a little sensitive?]]></description>

Even now my internet is not really fast but more likely due to having an &#039;old&#039; computer (as in a few years old).]]></description>

That&#039;s my problem, I just sat there staring at the screen waiting for it to load instead of doing anything, lol!  
I&#039;ll definitely start writing it up then  :)]]></description>

I&#039;m not sure what year I first used the internet... I remember waiting for a very long time to connect to it at school, when there was one computer in each classroom. I think we are spoilt these days with instant or almost instant connection :)]]></description>

Great comment :D
I probably spent too long online as well, but I used to get my reading done while waiting for sites to load/videos to buffer!
And yes, Google searches used to be more interesting. That&#039;s so cool that you had your own website! Yes the dial-up sound wasn&#039;t nice... broadband seemed like a luxury but we take it for granted now! Oh please do have a 90s nostalgia series, I would like to read it :) ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I LOVED the internet in the early 2000s, namely because that&#039;s the first time my family got it at home and I spent ages and ages online (far too long, lol).  Those were the days before Google became weird and started tailoring it&#039;s searches to your own browsigng history.  I had my own Geocities website back then, informative and mainly about Neopets but still, it was something people visited. :D
I think one thing I actually miss is the sound of dial-up internet connecting.  It&#039;s one of those horrible sounds but I kind of miss it now.

I was planning to post something similar to this, I was feeling all nostalgic and thought I&#039;d start a bit of a nostalgia series on the 90s (and around that time) on my blog, but you&#039;ve beaten me to it :o  lol :)]]></description>

Thanks! Yes there was more variety which made the internet a more interesting and surprising place, although I&#039;m not saying Wikipedia is a bad thing <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f609.png" alt="😉" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>
