Station Rose goes online

10.06.1991

here is the command: u __________story

 

the place where it happened was the WELL. We logged in from Frankfurt via 2400 baud.

command: u = the users online at that moment. it was an early version of <chat>, was omnipresent for us and became a daily routine at the Station Rose studio. Because it was still expensive to be online - SPEED was important.

get in & out & come back.

 

We went online, took a look who was there - at that moment- , connected, and after a few minutes went offline again. This became part of a @home - routine, and was done at least 10 times a day.
