Damn... I remember learning about yahoo.com for the first time at a Barnes & Nobles when I was actually looking for books about the WWW haha. Two other guys in the same aisle were exchanging bookmarks in person. Anybody else remember writing links down on paper?
- talmand 13y agoRemember when links to individual pages were short enough to memorize without the query string laden beasts we have today?
- rmc 13y agoThey weren't short, they were long and had weird characters. You'd have to go to someone's page like http://personal.theisp.net/users/~customername/pg1.htm http://personal.theisp.net/users/~customername/pg1.htm

- Geee 13y agoYeah, I remember that one kid in school who was 'collecting links'. He wrote them on a notebook and then told other kids about these cool links. Good times :)
- bliti 13y agoI remember writing links on post-it notes and pasting them to the CRT monitor. Even going as far as writing the result URL from Altavista.
