Share any experiences you've had from the internet before 1991, dig up cool info, pretty much discuss anything relevant to internet culture before 1991.

http://textfiles.com/ - Probably the best resource for learning about BBS (Bulletin Board System) culture on the web
http://www.bbscorner.com/ - Another great resource for learning about the era

Nothing happened. There was like 200 people using the internet. Surely the 1991-1999 era is much more interesting?

Those were the days when you could literally get kicked off the Internet for being an asshole.

Would we've been better off if the internet was never invented?
