well, they would gopher them, or use altivista or yahoo search on there netscape browser.
yahoo was like a directory back then, where you'd submit the site into the books category. altavista was like a predecessor to google, where it scraped the web, but finding stuff was just a chore. google redefined internet search so much so that it gained the term, to google for stuff
Oh jesus, remember Altavista...
