Of the World Wide Web. WWW is 30 years old today and Netscape Navigator was one of the early browsers.

A distant memory. Remember when you had to have a decent knowledge of DOS?

I remember both! We had a big book of fun little programs you could write in DOS (because my dad was an engineer, and liked to encourage nerdy fun).

Here's a website still sporting that late-90s look:

Not quite as much flashing text, scrolling text, hideous color choices, or animated-GIF-flames as on user pages on GeoCities, though.

I started out when using DOS wasn't optional. And through the late '90s, playing a game meant dropping out of Windows to DOS. I think MYST was my first (decent) in-Windows game.

I loved the MYST games but I have to admit that I bought the help books at the same time.
