Ah the old days when chat ruled. Talk between balut (AdMU), SLU and elsewhere.

A friend of mine even got married to a guy met through "talk."

Then the finger / talk (Unix) routine.

Does anyone still know what those were? :)


Finger brings funny memories of how faculty in my undergrad campus would post oh-so-honest details about themselves for the whole world to see. Even idle time was there for crying out loud.

I don't recall using talk, just rarely using ytalk when opportunity calls.

OT I guess, I'm not an old-timer as others in this list are....but from time to time I wonder about Gopher. I really did enjoy using gopher with what limited net time I had. Too bad mosaic killed it. <sniff>.
