When I was 8 or 9 my dad bought both a Vic-20 and a Commodore 64. The fun I had writing in basic. It used to consume my weekends. I would actually get up early (5am) to start my projects.
When I was older I ran a BBS (not on a C64) with 2400 baud modems, then 14.4 baud modems when MacMall was having a sale on them for only $89 each. I learned so much about programming as I extended my BBS's functionality. I think I still have my notes from my work still.
Had I realized it back then I probably had invented Reddit :-)
