Welcome to the Internet,
Arguably THE MOST IMPORTANT REASON TO HAVE A COMPUTER TODAY!

I discovered the Internet back around 1995.
Started The Virtual Front Porch (jabi.com) soon after
Had an Internet section back then
Have an Internet section now
But boy has it ever changed!

You still need Internet Access

But you are likely using High Speed Internet now.

You still need an Internet Browser

Back then I talked about why you should use Netscape instead of AOL or MSIE
AOL bought Netscape,
open sourced it,
called it Mozilla
and now they've released it as FireFox.
This is WizarDave's highly recommended browser of choice!
