WebTV

This article is crap. You can help by completely re-writing it.

WebTV (Web + TV) was possibly the only internet service provider considered more pathetic than AOL, and furthermore one of the worst ideas ever.

Created by Microsoft, WebTV allows you to surf the Web by plugging into your TV set and mashing random buttons on a keyboard. This allows people who should not have contact with others to get on the net and post to message boards and usenet.

WebTV has seemed to have died in recent years, or maybe not. Who gives a fuck.
