    Probably around 1999 when I were in first year of my bachelor degree. Yahoo mail is the first site which I visited on Internet.

    It was 1998, and I mostly searched with Yahoo. During that time I was working on a site called Super Sonic VS Pikachu, but didn't figure out how to upload a webpage until 3 years later lol!

    I always used Yahoo back then, until I noticed that the search always said "Powered by Google"... So I decided to go straight to the source and I started using Google instead. Thanks Yahoo! :D
