I jailbroke my iPod touch to use it as a USB wifi adapter when my internal one died. I had to use some old program to forward everything through port 80 though. Probably the nerdiest thing I've ever done.

Now I remember! I had to download one program that would allow me to have my USB port work at port 20 or something and then I had to use another program to route all port 20 traffic to port 80. Most stuff worked pretty well.

Smackbilly posted:were you not around during the late 90s? everyone believed that you could make money by giving away free stuff as long as it was on, or somehow related to, the internet. because the internet was new and things worked differently there, duh. Weren't they all advertisement based? Like you could browse for free but they had something that would throw interstitial ads at you?

Still, online advertising was fairly new then. I'd bet that the cost of getting an ad out on these services was "cheaper than everywhere else but still a decent amount of money" compared to today's "pennies."
