- anigbrowl 11y agoBut an understandable mistake. There was no web in 1991 and few people outside of academia would have been familiar with the internet. consumers were using the MiniTel system. Likewise very few people had cellphones. I remember that era quite well as I was spending a good bit of my time trying to explain the concept of email to people in suits and writing reviews of 2400 baud modems for computer magazines.
