    When I was your age we only had three TLDs to deal with - dot com, dot org, and dot net. Now you young whippersnappers have been spoiled with your dot coke and dot fb and dot diarrhea!

    Join the club. What was that browser add-on we used to access the WWW? Not Netscape, before that.

    Anyway it was just a joke, not directed at anyone.

    I recall using Mosaic. But before the WWW existed, I was using Anarchie, Veronica, Usenet, etc. Most people today can't even imagine an Internet without the WWW.
