Comment It was cool, but didn't do much (Score 1) 169
I had a college classmate who had just returned from an internship in Switzerland: "Let me show you something I helped work on this summer..."
We had been using Gopher, of course, and individual command-line networking tools (even on our NeXTStations), but this was something...different. When I mentioned that it was cool, but didn't offer much content, my classmate was quick to answer: "but think of what we can use it for!" I wasn't there for the birth, but I did see it smile for the first time...
