Share any experiences you've had from the internet before 1991, dig up cool info, pretty much discuss anything relevant to internet culture before 1991.

http://textfiles.com/ - Probably the best resource for learning about BBS (Bulletin Board System) culture on the web
http://www.bbscorner.com/ - Another great resource for learning about the era

Nothing happened. There was like 200 people using the internet. Surely the 1991-1999 era is much more interesting?
