21 Things Anybody Under 16 Won't Believe About How We Used The Internet

Websites

There were not nearly as many websites to be visited in the 1990s as there are now. Most of the time, the limited capabilities of existing search engines was satisfactory because the possibilities of the internet had not yet been understood. In fact, the default for learning new things was picking up an encyclopedia, rather than logging onto the web. As mentioned previously, there were no social media platforms apart from regular email. Although, there were plenty of personal websites made by average Joes, like this one, expressing love for Justin Timberlake from his N’SYNC days.
