I never went with AOL… I went Prodigy, CompuServe, then Concentric.Net was my first web host (a place to put those HTML files). Learned some basic CSS (best viewed in Mosaic). Learned some basic JavaScript (and took a couple classes). Tried learning Java (but was still trying to figure out what it was; the only thing that m
