I was never exposed to BBS before this and the TV show Halt and Catch Fire, but my first start online was with forums, which are somewhat like BBS, I think. Did you use BBS?

I got my first computer because I had to have one for a class in the MBA program. (A different class soon pointed me away from business and toward technology, so I never finished the MBA.)

The instructor told us "This World Wide Web is going to change everything." So we spent more time on HTML and learning to use FTP than benefits and grievances.

He stayed up late watching and called me evil. In conversation permalink Brandon Hall and Hallå Kitteh like this. -
