One of my favourite books as a child was The Rough Guide 2.0: The Internet and World Wide Web. It’s crazy how much has changed in 27 years and I hope this post helps you take a trip down memory lane. Or if you weren’t around in 1996 it provides a glimpse of what the emergent days (dial-up days) of the internet were like.
Heh. 300bps for me, and I didn’t have any storage for my Vic-20, so had to retype in the terminal software from the back of the modem manual every time I turned the computer on. Those were the good old days. 🤣
