Suddenly, I'm remembering watching the interlaced gif logo of WebCrawler slowly appear before me. Funny how some things are so banal, yet so indelible.
@RL_Dane @Gillinger @hananc @ftrain I remember WebCrawler! IIRC, it was run by AOL.
1995 was a good time on the Internet. Everyone was still trying to figure stuff out, and at the blazing speed of 33.3k baud.
Kind of like Mastodon right now, but without the screeching modems. 😉 #SearchEngines #DialUp #RetroTech

Yeah, screeching modems have been replaced by screeching influencers, but those are easily muted. 😂
