How I use the Internet

These days I use it mostly to soak up information - Wikipedia, Googling for library docs, that sort of thing. My experience witht he internet started back in '94 (I think) with a dial-up account from a local ISP that dropped me in a UNIX shell (I had no idea what that was at the time). My fondest memories are reading sci-fi newsgroups in tin and downloading peoples' D&D mods from various ftp sites. I also remember downloading alot of 'demos' from people like Future Crew... I'm sure nobody remembers those now at all. They were kind of a first stab at enthusiast animation and music.
