Kapow Turns 17!
Yesterday, 31st July 2012, we celebrated our 17th Birthday! There have been a lot of changes since we sent the first web originated SMS message in the UK, back in 1995.
Lets take a little trip down memory lane... in 1995:
- There were less than 19,000 websites on the world wide web!
- Nokia launched the 2110, the first mobile phone in the world to use vibrations.
- Windows 95 was released.
- eBay founded.
- T9 predictive texting was invented.
- The announcement of the much used DVD!
- Pierce Brosnan debuted as agent 007 in "Goldeneye", the 4th highest grossing film of the year.
- Toy Story was born! It was the first feature length film to be created using CGI.
