== Wonders Of The World Wide Web ==
Wonders Of The World Wide Web is a video series about how 21st century video games, websites, and applications, can function in the 1980s and/or 1990s, told from a perspective of a person living in the 1980s/1990s. Since computers were new, there is a very detailed explanation for various products such as connecting to the modem. The series also uses retro/pixel graphics as well, since computers had lower pixel density in the past.
This web series was written and edited by Jo and narrated and starring by his wife Kinna McInroe. the latter of whom is known for starring Nina in the 1999 film Office Space. A very similar character from the same actress and of the same name, if she is not the same character, serves as the protagonist and narrator of the series. An example of the narrator's name and appearance can be found in the video titled "If Zoom Was Around in 1988...".https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yIqr5ysUBI
Most of the videos are around 5 minutes long, and there is often floppy disk in the thumbnail of the products. There are some fonts which are shown that very bland and are in white which matches the computer's fonts during the time.

Jo Luijten came up with the name "Squirrel Monkey" since he had zero experience so he called his channel that. Squirrel monkeys are probably his favorite animals, so that may be the reason.
