What was Internet surfing like a long time ago?
When I first surfed the Internet, the connection was very slow. It took a long time to log on to a website. It also took a long time to download or upload data. Sometimes, I started a download at night and powered off the computer in the morning. Also, needed a computer to use the Internet. In other words, couldn't get Internet access on a phone.
