Remembrance Day 2008 - I remember when...

[DJ]

I wanted to dedicate this space as a new age Remembrance day post. While we should all remember our fallen soldiers on this fine day, what about those wonderful things we remember about the internet back in the 90's when the internet was still young.

I remember Napster,
I remember when people actually used AltaVista,
I remember when Meta Tags actually meant a lot.
I remember 14.4 modems and BBS boards
I remember Netscape
I remember the Google Dance

Rest in Peace. do you have any memories of days gone by?

RIP to those brave souls that made it possible for Canada to be who we are today. The greatest place to live in the world.

And found this link to be quite informative about the infant that internet was:
