Timon, Spanker, Robin, everyone on AWI ... consoles.

I'd even bet the enthusiastic VOIP users would pick that. And people who live far off and do lot of international stuff would say Skype.

For networking and such ... boards, ICQ.

Overall, to pick one, I'll have to go with Timon's "click programs" answer -- though I'd up that to "affiliate programs" in general ... cause if there weren't money in this, none of us would be here doing this.

I got a shitload of traffic from Robin's console.ABCweb

And a decent wedge of $$$ and a lot of traffic from Timon's Einstein Console .

That was when "ilynx" actually had tons of traffic lol

I was with Virtual Dreams in 95 when we were taking checks through the mail....then progressed to having people email us their creidt cards and have someone enter the info into a card machine, then email back the password.


IMHO.... NONE of us would really be making a living without online credit card transactions.

Payment gateway software was the most important thing to this industry..

Yep, definately up there for sure. I remember ScottPB telling us about riding his bicycle to the bank with CC trans deposting them every night. LOL
