After its completion, I joined a company called Networld. I learnt everything related to the Web World in this company. I was not even aware of EMail …. I still remember, that I was damn happy when I created my first mail id . It was on Eudora. Eudora was a Mail User Agent like Outlook and they provided the online mail account also. I don’t know what their current status is.
