How long have you been using the internet?

I don't know if this has been asked here before, but I was wondering how long everyone has been surfing the net? I didn't even know what the internet was until late '99. The whole email phenomenon was alien to me. I purchased my first pc in February of 2000 and I logged on to the internet for the very first time. I was so behind in regards to computers. Sad, I know;) So, how long has everyone been online? Anyone remember when the pickings on the internet were slim and all text based, no pics...a few chatrooms here and there and some discussion boards? Or, how about when 14.4 kbps modems were "fast"? lol.

Love,

GIA
