Was at the NY World's Fair and stood in line w/ my parents to try the service out. While it was neat to be on "TV" for the first time in my life, even then I had trouble figuring out why people would use it.
(Of course, pre-puberty, the obvious use wasn't yet obvious. -- BTW, how many technologies has sex been the initial "killer app" driving deployment? I can think of a few--like Polaroid pictures, 900 numbers, chat lines, etc. What others?)
