Scout Report from 1995
Hello,
I have been following NetHappenings from the very beginning some 15 years ago! Not in US, very good work.
I
am one those people that got intrigued about the Net as a new kind of "computing machine" with
new
kind of "applications", in late 80s, but I was placed far away from the main scene.
So "NetHappenings" was a first "media" stream full of things that the Net was giving
rise to and was made of. A kind of cyber-radio full of facinating stories, songs, talks and info about
new
sets too. all the best,
