No matter what you think of Internet Explorer as a browser, and it certainly has its detractors and even me, as a long-time user of the browser, have all but given up with it for Firefox at work and Google Chrome at home - mainly because Blogger works better with it, this video will have you remembering back if you are around my age of 26.
Though things have moved on considerably there's still a part of me that looks back fondly on those days. Yes, digital cameras used floppy disks as memory and technology was limited, but there was something about the internet not being all prevalent in our lives that was kind of fun. I'm not sure whether I'm harking back to my childhood or more to simpler times, both are sort of wound together inexplicably now.
Biggest things in the video? Tamagotchi, pogs and Dairylea Lunchables. Ah, the memories.
Plus some nicely worded attacks on trolls and Instragram. Not sure what the social network it mentions is - that must have passed me by.
I'm not sure it would bring me back to IE, it's a nightmare with Microsoft's own Vista and on Windows 7 still feels clunky, but it's a great advert and almost brings a tear to one's eye. Not quite though!
