Back in 1994(1995?), I had no idea that school got canceled due to bad weather. There were only 3 of us there and we all decided to chill out and talk. The Librarian told me to help move a computer and an external modem(14.4 baud speed). I asked him what it was and he showed me the WORLD WIDE WEB!!!! The very first website I clicked to was Yahoo.com. In the search box, I typed in "ID Software", which is a game company. The modem was extremely cheap and we lost connection about 5 times. At first, I was afraid that if I clicked on the word "Doom", the actual game might have popped up. Edit: First internet computer: Macintosh Performa. First Web browser: Netscape 2.0(?)
In 1996(1997?), I joined a summer program for High Schoolers which took place at a local college. They had very high-speed Gateway computers that blew me away. It was my first time experiencing high-speed internet called "ISDN". When I was young, I was a big fan of Consumer reports auto issue. My very first website on the high-speed internet was EDMUNDS.COM. I spent 3 hours straight going through that website and looked at every single car. The first car I looked at was the Ford Ranger because I was into 2wd compact pickups at the time.
Question:
-First online computer?
-First internet website?
-First modem speed?
