The public internet has been around about three times longer than what you're calling "old".

Geocities, Angelfire, and dialup modems are the "old" internet.

Not in the way it used to be though. I guess what I really miss is finding matches for counterstrike and stuff using IRC, it felt properly community based instead of designed to extract maximum money.
