Can anyone remember the early days of this website?

Can anyone remember this website when it was still in its infancy?

Was anyone a member of it right from when it very first started?

Wow, I wouldn't have thought it was all that time ago, even Windows 95 was still in its infancy then.

I wonder how many of the older websites are still accessible these days.

Actually the Internet itself is as old as me if you only but knew it.

It originated from a network of computers called ARAPNET which began in 1969, the year I was born.

Google it if you need proof.

Well you didn't ask about that, did you? You wanted to know about the early days of THIS site.
