My ICQ was 1428816.
And when young people ask me if I ever play multi-player games.. my dude, I played the first one. Midimaze on Atari ST.
I had an icq number in the 184000 range. :) Bragging rights!
Every time this topic comes up, I feel very nostalgic. Of course the tech was not as good, but the internet was free of big tech.
I was using netscape as my first web browser.
I have a 5 digit steam ID, made on the 3rd day steam existed. Back when we all hated the concept of it.

Tom and I go way back. He's never so much as given you that over the shoulder smile.
My YouTube account is older than Pewdiepie's account... and that's my second YouTube account.
I remember ARPANET before it was privatized. Before TBL made Mosaic and the first web server, when all there was was USENET discussions, FTP, and Gopher. I set up mail and news over uucp dialup for clients in the 80s. I ran System III Venix on a PDP-11. I was a sysadmin on a team managing a dual CPU VAX 9000 with 192MB of RAM in 1990. Which was a lot back then. I'm old.
fuck. i can't remember my icq # anymore. it was 6 digits and started with an 8.

You wouldn't be in my Top 8
I chuckled. I miss MySpace. Choosing a song for your profile was great. Facebook should add that feature to their profiles. So should Bluesky and Mastodon.

Fun fact. ICQ was the the go to messaging platform for the porn industry and was actively being used in the industry right up to the point it was bought by a russian company.
