You&#x27;re correct. News and Observer (nando.net I think) was a daily visit for me back in the mid 90&#x27;s. It was the first one I found which provided a full newspaper without being hidden in a walled garden and without needing monthly fees. AP &amp; Reuters were available online but locked behind a very expensive paywall.<p>Nando was the first time I read of breaking news online. The story on the Oklahoma City bombing jolted me awake one morning. Reading Nando over coffee on my tiny 12 inch screen of a Macintosh LC.<p>I&#x27;ve often wondered if they could have leveraged their very early lead into something else.
