growing up I aint have much but my dad used to sell computers before we were born...so we always had computers, old joints. I aint get the internet til like '97 I think.

I definitely know about compusure...prodigy sounds familiar but I cant remember what that is...



Yeah...I remember back in those days if you were on the internet, no phone calls came in. Being a kid we weren't allowed to get on during the daytime for the most part, which was bad...until I discovered porn...then night time internet was perfect, everyone is asleep :win:...damn, how time changes.

yea, in the mid-90s, i only knew one other nicca that had a computer. we initially became close off the strength of that. by the late '90s, it became more common. i think the impact of the internet in the late '90s has been forgotten. by '96-'97, that chit was jumpin. and by the time the 2000s hit, darn near everybody had it.

i think prodigy may have been the 1st big-time internet provider. it certainly was the 1st one i knew about.

I remember those. speaking of which...were u (or anyone else) textceein back then on AOL by any chance? anyone remember the old AOL crews like TwD, JFC, FML, TM etc...?

I remember first gettin on the net in 94 when I bought Donkey Kong Country for snes n it came with a free AOL demo, customized with Donkey Kong wallpapers n shyt.

I am so glad that you posted this. It's pretty hilarious and random to see something pop up when I googled "aol jfc twd fml.." how many people were really involved in that? Maybe a hundred or so? Anyways I was in JFC (juvenile freestyle cartel) and TWD (tactical warfare dynasty)as well as one called SLS( soul lyric squad) haha! I used different accounts to join different crews using PUNTERS, anyone remember those programs? ... Anyways yea aol crews and davey d's hip hop corner post boards was where I used to throw down my lyrics it's cool that someone remembers all that what 15 years ago?
