Same here. Those were the days I discovered the internet. IRC, newsgroups, MSN games and Yahoo games made my days.

All these years later, I still have my Yahoo email account, and visit their Answers pages every once in a while - back then, Google only directed you to websites or pages. Yahoo Answers had doctors, engineers, mathematicians, computer programmers, etc ready to answer anything. Not many here may know, but Yahoo also had a video upload service similar to YouTube. It also had celebrities, bands, musicians who uploaded music videos. I wonder if that still exists...
