Hi, what did you get up to the when you got connected to the internet?

I went to some Amiga sites including aminet, Yahoo, a couple of university websites and some companies (only intro pages at that time).


I used my A1200 and a 2400 baud modem to connect to the internet threw a local university. They were using something call "PINE", I can't remember what program I was using to connect but it was text only. I went to a lot of Newsgroups at the time.
