>We will never again experience the glory that was iGoogle.I don't even know how I am supposed to cope with that.
>>108498084I cannot believe it, I used iGoogle somehow I didn't knew about YouTube well into 2011~.
Never used it cause zoomer but i really miss this style of clean mostly html design without oversized boxes
>>108498189Guessing you missed out on Google Buzz too
>>108498209Yeah
>>108498209Guess he missed on Google Wave.
>>108498189>Never used it cause zoomerI am a zoomer yet I used it.>Google Buzz>Google WaveNope I missed on this.I was likely 5 or 8 when it came out.
>>108498227It was fun while it lasted. I got my first email a little before it launched. My friends and I would send these long chain emails to each other, and when Buzz was released, it became a kind of first social network. No one I knew was really on Facebook at the time. But Buzz only lasted a few years if I remember correctly.
>>108498209How was this different from Wave?
>>108498261I never used Wave. Buzz was built into gmail, and so anyone with an account got opted into it.
>>108498130What's a YouTube ?
>>108498253I was pretty sheltered on the net, didnt get to use youtube until i was about 9. In hindsight i would make the same decision if i were the parent.>>108498255That sounds nice. Never got into facebook and the like myself so i cant imagine anyone from skool really remembers me.
