I don't actually remember a specific first experience with the web. It's more of a shift in my life from a time when I did not use computers or the internet (up to age 5-6) to a time that I did. Since that time technology and the internet has become essential in my life. From having a typewriter in my house to word processing on a computer. From the days of watching TV and being at the whim of whats on now (though I still am) to the first time I was able to watch streaming TV shows and movies-on demand all with the coming of broadband internet connections.
I don't tend to do a lot of exploring on the internet, however I do spend a couple hours a day perusing my favorite sites. I have a series of websites that I visit regularly which are mainly concerned with my favorite sports teams (WVU, and Miami Dolphins), the latest news, latest technology news, information about up and coming movies and books I may be interested in, and social networking.
I wouldn't call my self a "techie" as I don't quite have the funds to keep up with all the latest and greatest new technologies. I do however know my way around computers, and have built a few including my current machine.
For better or for worse the internet has become a daily part of my life.
