#30: An Internet Cafe
Who remembers the days of internet cafes? It’s wild to think of now, but the internet was not widely available to everyone back in the 1990s and early 2000s. Internet cafes were all the rage because people could congregate, eat food, and surf the World Wide Web. This photo from 1998 was taken at a Burger King that also offered computer access.
This young man is enjoying a side of Microsoft Word and Ask Jeeves with his Whopper. The computer-focused Burger King was pretty popular. All of those computers are occupied by happy customers. We can only imagine how greasy and nasty those computer keyboards got over the course of a day.
