One of the greatest things Encarta 95 introduced me to was David Bowie. Im not saying that it had a ton of information because to be honest it was quite limited but it really did set the groundwork for what internet encyclopedias would come to be.
Until Encarta came out I had to do all of my research on the families giant encyclopedia set from the eighties. Today the internet has become an endless supply of information any question you have can be answered with just a few clicks. At its time of conception there was nothing like it.

The last of the free software im gonna be talking about today is Encarta 95. I didnt realize until today how much this must have influenced me in my life, I now work at an advertising company editing video its clear that my time playing with this software as a kid lead to my interest in the field today. It was pretty much a primitave version of flash software where you made your own clippets of Spiderman. Just more proof that these are dying memories.Īnother free software program included was the Spiderman Cartoon Maker. This disc also had a really fun bumper game on it, sorry I couldnt find a single picture from it on the internet (and thats something you cant say often).

Funny though, im sure even with it's inclusion with every pc that was sold back then, the movie still didnt do well. Now days the internet is filled with literally millions of movie trailers but this had to be the first movie trailer on a computer ever. What I do remember is the trailer for it that was included on the Windows 95 disc. I must have watched this video a thousand times. The video quality was very poor compared to MTV, but the fact that I could watch a Weezer video any time I wanted to on my computer was revolutionary.
One of the music videos included was Buddy Holly from Weezer, one of my favorite songs at the tme. Nothing special at all by todays standards but like fire to primative cave men this was amazing to me. Its pretty much just a few random games and videos that showcased just what windows was capable of. We all talk about our love of our old gaming systems such as NES and Genesis, but what about your first pc? We purchase things from track jackets to belt buckles that bear the image of nintendo controlers and such but where are the t-shirts for packard bell and windows 95? Many of us talk about the hundreds of games and movies we loved as kids but what about all the software and game applications from the past? The more we advance in technology the more these memories are lost in time.Ībove is the Windows 95 disc Microsoft included with each pc purchased with Windows installed. PC World voted Packard Bell as one of the top ten worst pcs ever, but when my family brought this machine into our home in 1994 it was the greatest thing I had ever seen. This isnt my computer but its the same exact model we had, im sure many of you had one of these Packard Bell's. Im in no way a computer expert (far from it) but I am an average joe and I would like to share some of my first (and fondest) memories on computers and the internet.
If your here at this site, chances are your into computers on some level.
