1st computer contact
I remeber the first time that I came in contact with computers was around when I was in First Grade. I remember we had a computer in the house that my father did some of his work on and we used it to play solitare and pong. In school I remember using the computer playing educational games. There was a word muncher game and I remember playing Oregon and Amazon trail. I also remember using Encarta for many school projects and just to satisfy my own curiousity about nature.
When I moved to Texas in the 5th grade is when I remember really utilizing the computer for more than educational purposes and I remember using it more in my home. This is around the time that we got AOL at our house. AOL was one of the bigger internet service providers, so a lot of people had it. I remember first getting my e-mail account, trying my hand at making my own webpage, talking to friends with the IM feature. I was fascinated by it.
