We can all over estimate our intelligence. I remember clearly getting some email from a list, downloading some weird thing and trying it. I remember clearly deciding it was just total junk - it took me about 5 minutes - and I deleted it.

Of course this was Mosaic. And of course I was totally and completely wrong. Said he while using the Firefox web browser. And when was the last time I used telnet?

I wouldn’t judge myself so hard. You were reacting to what the web was back then. It’s pretty hard, perhaps impossible, to foresee what it would become.

I remember reading “you can go to the Louvre and then the MoMA, all with a click of the mouse”. But taking a plane felt almost as slow and expensive, only way more fun.

I deleted Netscape to claim back the 20MB or so it occupied in my 250MB drive.
