W.G. Williams is proud to announce the release of 20 Years of Internet Humor, a hilarious compilation that brings together two decades of the funniest and most memorable stories shared across the internet.
-- Originally conceived to keep a sales team engaged in the 1990s, these emails and anecdotes have since grown into a global phenomenon, offering readers around the world a delightful collection of humor that spans simple wordplay, heartfelt moments, and classic comedic situations.
The book serves as a reflection of early internet culture when email chains, humorous forwards, and funny stories were shared like wildfire, connecting people across the globe with laughter. For more than 20 years, Williams has sent out daily "Thoughts for the Day" that have inspired countless smiles, and now, with the release of this book, readers can experience some of the best jokes and stories from his extensive collection.
“I started sharing humorous emails to keep my sales team motivated, but it quickly grew into something much larger,” said W.G. Williams, author of 20 Years of Internet Humor. “The response was overwhelming, and soon, people all over the world were asking to be included. Now, decades later, it’s exciting to see these stories come together in a book that offers a bit of joy and laughter for everyone.”
