I was getting tutorials on the net in 1991-92, but I didn't first check out the net until 1998. I helped my daughter get info from an embassy on the library computer system. I got my first computer and posted the first time in 1999...
There used to be a system called ERIC, in the eighties, and it was used for interlibrary and intercollegiate posting of sources and papers for educational purposes. I used that. So, I don't know if that counts as an "internet" but
it was some sort of a forerunner to it. (I also remember when all computer programs had to be coded & be "punched in" on "punch cards" and then submitted.)
