This is probably the oldest site still in operation:
https://www.nordu.net/

NORDUnet was founded in 1985 as a result of the NORDUNET programme and is jointly owned by the five Nordic countries. Each of the Nordic NRENs has a seat on the board and share the base costs according to the country GDP.

Edit: actually, Symbolic.com is still around but it doesn't appear to represent the original company that held it (a hardware company specializing in LISP programed machines).

My love for the first stealth-based game Thief spans way, waaaaaaay back. 1996 if memory serves me correctly. Ahhhh the good ole' days

http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=beat

Also probably around 1996. So random, I was about 12 at the time and for whatever reason I saved this page years later in my vault of Word docs.

I grew up in a very loving & great household (low-middle class). I was taught to respect my elders and if I cursed at one of them (happened only a handful of times) I'd get a slap to the face. Shut me up real quick and/or made me tear haha. Ahhhh, but I learned! It's probably why I find half of the stuff on this page so damn funny because it's over the top. Have a laugh people

There were other sites that I visited before Yahoo! but I wasn't doing much on the internet before that. They went online sometime in the mid 90's. I spent some time in the late 90's early 2000's playing chess, checkers and backgammon against other people in their games rooms. You could chat in the lobby while waiting for an opponent. They had a section where you could play games like Risk II and Axis and Allies multiplayer as well. I had played turn based Empire on BBS during the 80's but that was my first experience playing multiplayer online.

I think eBay and Amazon are older (1995) than the Warner site. At work now so can't look into this in detail

I wondered what that looked like.

You're going to need a big HD for that. I've seen estimates of how much it would take to store the entire internet and it seems it might take around 600 exabytes (600 million TB)
