Oh, man – GeoCities. I built so many random websites there when I was an angsty teenager. RIP SunsetStrip!
.-= Margaret’s latest blog post: Mark Waid is Evil. And Irredeemable. Or Something. =-.
😀 I think you can trace a direct line of angsty teenager sites from GeoCities to LiveJournal to MySpace. I wonder what’ll be next? (Facebook seems to be primarily the 20+ crowd.)
Trouble with losing GeoCities is that there are still comics fan sites that are sitting there, unmaintained, that either have useful information or provide an interesting look back at late 1990s fandom.
