I first got connected to the internet many years ago.  At the very beginning, I used a terminal emulation program on my A2000HD to access a text only webpage server called freenet over dial-up.  Then I got a SLIP account and used AmiTCP/IP and Mosaic.  Later updated to PPP, AmiTCP/IP and AWeb-II.  I used FTPMount to download software from the original Aminet site.

In no particular order, my favourite sites were:
The Amiga Web Directory
The Amiga Zone
Christian Kemp's Amiga Network News
http://www.amiga-news.de/en/
Amiga.org
another Amiga news site that I can't remember the name
Aminet
