Here are some brief memories and dates, for more check this out (in Bulgarian): veni.com\/parvite.html<\/a>, which is part of a book published 5-6 years ago in Bulgaria, called “The first on the Internet”.<\/p>\n

\t– first modem connection – September 1990, when I also joined FidoNet.
\n– first own modem – somewhere in 1991, it was a 1200 bps, with error correction, got it as a present from England
\n– my first own PC AT-386 at 25 MHz I bought in 1993, it had 80 Mb of HDD – quite a good machine at this time.
\n– what is now bol.bg<\/a> was founded in December 1993.
\n– soc.culture.bulgaria<\/a> – I see a posting where I am being quoted<\/a> on July 21 1995
\n– I met Vint Cerf online (via MCImail) somewhere in 1993, as in 1994 Mitko Ganchev was his guest at the ISOC’s INET 1994 in Prague (I coudn’t make it there), and I met Vint in 1995, at his office at MCI. This was also the year I first visited ISOC’s headquarters in Reston, VA.
\n– Founded the Internet Society of Bulgaria in December 1995, together with Mitko Ganchev<\/a> and Mitko Kirov<\/a>.
\n– the first Linux (Slackware) was installed again that year – I brought several CDs with me from the USA (did I buy them from CD creek or something different?)
\n– my first blog entry must have been on or before Oct. 13, 1998, according to the date of two files at www.veni.com , however, I used a different domain before that, so I can’t really find out when I started the blog (well, I called it memoires on line<\/a> at this time, as the word blog was not known to me)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I will put more information when I remember it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
