a network called internet

“A network called ‘Internet,'” an awesome 1993 introduction to the subject from the CBC. Ah, the days when “the Internet” was just “Internet,” kind of like “Skeletor,” “She-Ra,” or “Beyonce.” Also, the days when “Internet” was, for CBC purposes, a synonym for “Usenet.”
Six days before this piece aired, I was busy posting on rec.sport.basketball.college, comparing the careers of UNC centers Eric Montross and Scott Williams.
