- Poptropica and Club Penguin rlly popular
- Waking up early morning to watch Curious George, Between the Lions, or Clifford on PBS Kids
- People still used Facebook before it was mostly being used by older people, mostly for the games like Farmville.
- Sims 3 and Sims 3 were out (I still LOVE them to this day)
- Playing Kid Pix whenever I went to the computer lab with my class in primary school
- Having a Tamagotchi (I have a collection of Tamagotchis rn lemme get mine real quick)
- Magic Tree House books
- Noggin was still a thing with Moose and Zee
- Miniclip, Flonga, Y8, Agame, and Newgrounds
- Might B!, Making Fiends, and Invader Zim were my favorite shows
