It’s pretty cool hey, we’re lucky, technology can be great when it’s used right. I enjoy connecting with some of my family up north an opportunity I didn’t have until recently when they got a phone tower put in, they had nothing there until a couple years ago @Former-Member

Well @ArraDreaming , internet didn't exist when I was a kid!

Then we had dial-up modems... never want to go back there!

Oh, and corded phones attached to the wall. LOL

Northern Territory? Australia is huge and so much of it away from city centers and things like towers. I went to Spain once ad was stunned at how overpopulated it seemed, then I realised Australia was the anomaly 🤣

My first memory of the internet @tyme was when I was about 11 using ask Jeeves (this was pre google) on a school box looking computer in the library, we didn’t have a computer at home but if I went to friends houses they had to have the computer off so their parents could use the phone

Oh the sound of the dial up @tyme and @Shaz51 !!!

@ArraDreaming I recommend YouTubing it and having a listen, it'll make you appreciate your modern conveniences ha ha
