I’m new to the internet. Only got access to it 3 years ago. Didn’t own a smartphone until last year. I’m curious how it was for people who discovered it earlier.

    Most memories are from my early 2000s childhood:

    • playing Ultima Online (MMO)
    • playing Gunbound (artillery game)
    • playing games and hoarding items on Neopets
    • browsing nonsense on sites like Ebaumsworld & Newgrounds
    • “dj-ing” on coke music (online lounge) to make dBs to spend on furniture for upgrading my clubhouse
    • chatting with schoolmates on MSN messenger
    • learning html to make my page on Nexopia (similar to Myspace)
    • making little fashion avatars on Dollz Mania (and putting them on my Nexopia)
    • downloading all sorts of viruses through music on Limewire

      playing Ultima Online (MMO)

      I once was bored in front of a piano so I learnt (by trial and error) to play stones (the login music), then I did the same with a guitar. So yeah, leave me alone with an instrument long enough and I’ll learn this song eventually hahahaha.

      playing Gunbound (artillery game)

      There’s a game I completely forgot about, I used to love the boomerang one.
