First Impressions of the Internet
Sometime during early elementary school I talked my parents into ordering me a subscription to Girl’s Life magazine. Endorsed by the Girl Scouts of America, the wisdom contained in the magazine was undoubtedly crucial to my survival as a preteen female. Every month I would pore over the articles describing movies and fashion, as well as weightier pieces discussing what it meant to be a young woman in America. Everything written in the magazine seemed so practical and relevant to my life! I was hooked.
In the spring of 1997 Girl’s Life chose to create an online presence for itself. The letters from the editor that year continuously urged readers to set up accounts on the publication’s newly-created website, speaking warmly of the advice forums, interactive games, and e-mail client offered by the magazine. My membership on this site was quickly deemed a necessity.
