bring back geocities!
Neocities
THANK you, there goes a week's worth of my life now
You can get a full dose of nostalgia with this one: https://displayman.neocities.org/
Even after closing the tab, that background music is still playing!
I can't tell if that's a parody, since it has every single 2000s homepage trope, or actually archived. I'm too distracted by its glory to look deeper.
My first Geocities was a totally redundant Commander Keen fansite, complete with "under constructions", tacky gifs, marquee tags and background midis. I still have the html files. I had a freeware games Tripod site as well.
wow, it's magnificent!
Seems to be blocked by my adguard instance :(
With some similarities to federation, I'm grateful to be able to syndicate to both neocities and nekoweb. Long live the web and indienet!
what am i looking at here? looks really cool.
There are attempts to explain what it is within the document, but I think it's not easy to summarize or define. It's a ~70MB html file that I've written in every day for about 10 years. I cover a significant variety of topics. It's a journal, a wiki, and a social media replacement (I speak with others from the site itself), too. It serves many functions. If you end up makin' your own site, lemme know. I'm an avid reader.
that's really cool! and.. um.. wow, i did a bit of math on your 70MB HTML file:
that's about 73.4 million characters. if it was a book, it would be about 48,700 pages long.
so it's called tiddler?
I am hypergraphic. From the estimates I've seen, there are fewer than a thousand humans (including the unknown) to have written as much structured, coherent text in their lifetimes.
I use Tiddlywiki as my base tool: https://tiddlywiki.com/
Bring back Tom!
Tom did the right thing and now enjoys his money.
