Sort of like NE, I started out on BBS's. Local ones in the mid-80's. I remember getting my first 2400 baud modem - cost about $1000!
Then some local boards got Fidonet. I remember to this day how amazing I thought that was - to be able to type a post and have it sent around the world that night, and get an answer back from the US or Europe etc the next day.
I got a look at the WWW in the 90's whilst at university, but got a taste of usenet in the very early 90's. As you can imagine, things have changed considerably. :)
