  3. Today I ran across @ricmac and his new, truly expansive piece on the history of (the admittedly centralized) GeoCities and its origins.

    I had a GeoCities site myself in the 90s (that is sadly lost to time now), and I didn't know all this wild history Richard dug up for this.

    A must-read if you're into the whole 90s early web thing: cybercultural.com/p/geocities-

  4. What the internet looked like in 1994, according to 15 webpages born that year

    "...back in ’94, the salesmen and oilmen and land-grabbers and developers had barely arrived. In the calm before the storm, the Web was still weird, unruly, unpredictable, and fascinating to look at and get lost in. People around the world weren’t just writing and illustrating these pages, they were coding and designing them."

  5. I like it when I happen upon a Japanese website that looks like something from the 1990s, then check the footer and see that it was indeed made in the 1990s.

    (there is a surprising number of these sites still out there)

  6. I dug the look of the front of Yahoo in 1994. Still do, really.

  7. Wow, it's been 28 years today (April 13, 1995) since Michael Loren Mauldin brought us Lycos. He got the name Lycos from Lycosidae, a Latin name for a family of wolf spiders, which is something I didn't know.

    The 90s were wild.
