Cello was the first graphical browser I used after Lynx for a short while. Though I appreciated the graphics in Cello, I did initially find the Web (graphics or just text) to be messy compared to the much more orderly Gopher. Once I started dabbling with HTML and made a crude site for my employer, I quickly went from office clerk to webmaster. At that point Gopher was pretty much forgotten.

I also used Cello, on an early Windows NT beta. It was multi threaded and async, much nicer and faster compared to Mosaic. Problem was it was also very buggy and crashed all the time. After some time I returned to Mosaic that would run without crashing.
