What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.
Although I had occasionally visited BBSes via my shoebox-sized modem in the late 80's and early 90's, my first foray into internetdom was early June 1994. I discovered the venerable Global Network Navigator, and--though the GNN is long gone--I have been navigating the global network almost daily since then.
