Stumbled upon this….

excerpts include

  • DOOM is released, slowing the network to a near stop, and worker productivity to a total stop. Parents rejoice as the release of the game frees them from all responsibility for how their kids behave.
  • First piece of spam appears in USENET newsgroups and is quickly removed. “Well, that should be the last of that”, say users.
  • 3lit3 hax0rz, d00d: Teens become most prolific illiterate writers in history.
  • Blogging invented. Promises to change the way people bore strangers with banal anecdotes about their pets.

Check it out….btw….. stumbleupon has replaced google as my favourite way to browse mindlessly
