not very much, i was a freshman in college so i was talking to all my newly found classmates on AIM, stealing music with the glorious T1 connection i had, and watching newgroudns and other stupid video sites.

I think I spent some time on ICQ as well, I was really proud of my page.

AOL chat, ICQ, Intel Video Chat... I was an IM queen.

playsite.com (which apparently doesn't exist anymores) more for the chat rooms than games. and rocking on the ICQ.

I wasn't on the internet.

After college, I didn't actually have internet access until I moved to SF.

Corey Hart said, (77 days ago)

I was probably doing what Jay Def was doing.

I first got internet in late 2000 and I spent most of that time building a Geocities site and very slowly downlading Pavement songs from epitonic.com.

Also visiting http://www.dailyradar.com/ for video game news, even though I didn't have a video game system then.

sound of snowsuit said, (77 days ago)

I think I'd stopped using ICQ by then, so it was probably just downloading songs using audiogalaxy.

@oz: I don't need your newfangled techno-jargon woman!

Saying "I don't understand this at all" pretty often.

Updating my Xanga.

@Apostle: if that's not a euphemism for something already, I predict it will be by the end of the day.

Aim, ghost-writing blog entries for others, leeching mp3s.

khaaaaansumating said, (77 days ago)

"You've been in the bathroom for over 45 minutes! What's going on in there??"

NOTHING! I'm updating my Xanga.
