The general public began to realize that PC's were more than just toys for geeks when they saw what programs like VisiCalc (spreadsheets) and WordStar (the first commercially successful word-processing program) could do.

Modems and phone lines were first used to link computers together in the 60's. The 70's saw the formation of many small computer networks, and companies like Compuserve and The Source began to provide PC owners with online services of their own.
