    My first experience with the net was as a freshman in college in 1993. That was my first email and my first web browsing experience.

    My first online trailer was Star Trek: First Contact. A friend of mine had a computer in his room and he downloaded it and we watched it over and over, and even played it back in slow speed so we could pick the shots apart. I was hooked, but it wasn't until 98 that I was really able to indulge my addiction.

    For the record, I used Netscape 2.0 as the first browser in college, and continued to use them up through version 7.1, and then switched to Firefox, so I have never used Internet Explorer as my main browser for the web. Not that it matters.

    I started my webpage in 1997 basically as a list of bookmarks that I could access from any of the college computers. It has grown considerably in that time.

    I got my first look at the web in 94 when my office gave us a course in how to access the web. I was jazzed, and could hardly work. Back then, there was very few retail sites, so it was great fun just surfing. I immediately got set up at home, but my 56k modem was such a drag. I was the first person in my town to get DSL .. was on a waiting list FOREVER but it's been 5 years now!

    I google ... and play games on yahoo, but will go to yahoo if I don't find what I'm looking for on google .. which happens occasionally. I get different results with yahoo.
