A/S/L?

If those three letters just unlocked something in

your brain — this episode is for you.

This week on In Case I Missed It: 90s Edition we're

going back to the early internet. The dial-up modem

sound. The AOL CD that came in the mail. Chat rooms

full of strangers. The screen name you chose at 9pm

on a Tuesday that became your entire digital identity

for a decade. AIM buddy lists. The away message that

was definitely about someone specific. GeoCities pages

with auto-playing MIDI music nobody asked for. And

Napster — the software one 18-year-old built in his

dorm room that accidentally ended the music industry

as it existed.

Plus our new permanent segment — the TOP 5 LIST.

This week: Top 5 Early Internet Experiences Every

90s Kid Had and Will Never Forget. From the Napster

download that took 45 minutes and got killed by the

phone, to the getting-caught-online moment every

single one of us lived at least four times.

The early internet was weird. It was chaotic. It was

completely unsupervised. And it changed everything

about how humans talk to each other — forever.
