What was eventually to become the internet began in the USA in the 1960s. Much later other countries became involved, with connections being established across the Atlantic in the early 1970s. What we now know as the internet formally came into being in 1989, at which point many countries were involved. The World Wide Web started in the early 1990s. It began to really become popular in about 1995. Throughout all of this it isn't as straightforward to say when any given country became involved. The internet is spreading all the time.

According to this source, the internet began operating in Thailand in 1987:

However, it does not indicate when the first websites like Thai Visa and Udon Map began. Or, maybe it does but I do not have time to investigate further as I am grading final examinations.

Just google internet origins in Thailand

I am sure Izzix will tell us soon as to what forums were happnin back in 80's......maybe ..Ye-Olde-Secrets.com...or Olde Worlde-Ex-pat residing-in-Siam.co.th,

but I do not have time to investigate further as I am grading final examinations.

Yeah best pay full attention...as one slip up could change the whole life of some student....


2002 TV..+..UM 2002 (going by the note at the base of the forum)

Just write PASS on all of them,and relax,TiT!

And the topic is "Mods on Thai Visa"

as for my post being removed I have no problem with it I just pick up on some one else post
getting back to thai visa they mail me a email about every other day informing me what new in thailand
it goes in the spam box some times I read it if the article is of interest to me.

The forum is not here to provide a platform for members to air grievances with others, particularly if they are in no way connected to Udonmap and are of the nature described.

Sorry Dad.

I must've got confused with the title of this thread.

This topic has clearly run its course, and in the absence of any further intelligent on topic input, is now locked.

for those who asked this was the first Thai forum on the net ,from 91 not 80s as i mistakenly said .

no censors no mods discuss what you feel like ,dont know if its banned from LOS .

the search engine is usefull as it covers 20 years of Thai news articles .so if you want find out how many tourists have been murdered in Pattaya its a good place to start ..
alan dawson used to post on there quite a lot .

the physics teacher Laurence Godfrey was slandered on there numerous times and sued a number of posters successfully over the years and eventually sued Demon Internet in the UK for 350,000 pounds some years back.
Most of the old posters have moved on to the Thai forums and there's a lot of nutters on there now whereas it used to be a good forum .But you can occasionally find some news nuggets on there .
i drop by there once in a while for a look ...
