Exploring Lost Websites

[@PeachysMom]

Lately I was thinking, we don’t get to “surf the web” anymore like we used to. During the 90s the internet could be an exciting adventure. I kind of miss that.

[@vapormissile]

Right on! Reminds me of surfing the radio dial for faint stations.

[@THICCTHICCTHICC]

Yeah it's a shame. You never knew where you'd end up. Now it's rare that my rabbit holes venture beyond Wikipedia or Reddit.

[@0404chrisjz]

It's definitely more rabbit holes now more then ever, the statement don't even make sense the Internet was never just entering random urls to see were you went, there's always been gateways to the Internet, that's how the whole thing works ​@@THICCTHICCTHICC

Did this episode remind you that your old Sailor Moon website was preserved, or did you always have access to it?

[@mmisafire]

those personal homepages really hold something special that a lot of the modern internet lacks. you can personalize things pretty far but theres really nothing quite like the level of freedom you could get with those kind of sites. the bubbles of community too, having specific places for your favorite things and people to share it with is also much less in these times. everyone is kind of all in the same place overlapping and in some ways thats good! i think just in general the modern internet feels very restrictive and trapped especially compared to what we get to see here

[@OPSECHero]

No more forums, everything is a Discord server. I feel like we need to stop relying on social media.

[@SpookyDollLady]

Once when we were in the 5th grade, one of my friends printed out a bunch of character stat pages from a Buffy the Vampire Slayer Geocities fan page for me and matted them on red and black construction paper and everything. I still think about that sometimes, how that was just normal fan culture behavior at the time. There was no tumblr to reblog gifs of your favorite characters, you just had Geocities fan pages and if you wanted to share them with your friends who didn't have internet yet you had to physically print them out.

[@mishXY]

not quite the same, but I used to print out cheat codes for some friends who didn't have internet back in the days. my 10-years-older brother was an early adopter of the internet so we were connected since like '93 or '94

[@fueledbyregret]

Yahoo is also behind the issues with Tumblr (the modern day Geocities IMO) They're a menace.

[@EdAbarba44]

And how is it people still even use Yahoo? I'd have thought that its purpose would have been served long ago.

[@clockworkcookie]

I started a site about philosophy there when I was like 14 , I never did it for real though. Sad. The internet back then was truly a creative space, now you're stuck with predefined boxes called "social media" where you can write your stuff but within the confines of that space's aesthetic and limitations. I think this is why I love vaporwave so much, because it brought back the feeling that you could be as corny as possible when creating your own pages with all those weird graphics combos, fonts and sound effects.

[@vapormissile]

[@phantom8926]

Making me feel old while reminiscing about the old times. Miss the old days where I coule actually legitimately code a website before it all became streamlined and less creative than it is now.

[@EdAbarba44]

I miss the open feeling of Groceries; I also had one that I didn't really finish either! Looking back on it, I'll never understand why all of us seemed to favor text on clashing backgrounds and a different background for each individual page on a site! It was just sorta taken for granted that each page on it had to look unique rather than a standard background.

[@Galaxy-ip7cc]

I never got to be on geocities, but I've recently started making a neocities page-I hope that neocities can bring some of the same sort of joy and exploration that the original did.

[@beansandbunnies3848]

despite being born in the late 2000's and having very limited internet access most of my life, i never got to experience exploring sites like these (or a lot of great stuff about the 2000's), yet i still have a strange sort of nostalgia for this kind of stuff; i'm glad videos like these and archives exist bc i love seing how things were before i was born/when i was little :3

[@ariellchilcote5230]

Even being born in the late 90's I still didn't get to experience things like this. I grew up in a rural area and our technology was a bit behind more populated areas... A lot of people have no idea what I'm talking about when I say "remember when you had to log into the internet?"

[@synistree]

Oh under construction pages were a common place staple. Made many geocities sites and it's also worth pointing out that it was up to the author to pick the correct section for their page. Once you did, I don't even think you could (easily) move it

[@darkhalf81]

Geocities totally served alot of memories for most netizens from my generation. Good times spent exploring the unknown during the Internet's infancy stage.

[@0404chrisjz]

Netizens hell naw bro that was gross take it back, I can't believe that's the first time I've heard that term

[@samtron5000]

Lmao netizens? Hell nah From someone who was chronically online from 1998.. that’s weird.

[@yanasto]

I definitely remember the term “netizens” nothing weird about it

[@Llamarama100]

I was a kid when GeoCities was a thing, it was full of circuits and projects that I used to build with my dad. Now I'm a certified power electronics engineer. It was so much more fun than the new internet, the pages had so much personality, it honestly felt like you were talking directly to someone. I really miss how intimate the internet used to be.

[@bobsixtyfour64]

I was in my early teens when I made my Geocities site. I was obsessed with the first X-Men movie, and made a little fansite dedicated to it. I had a gallery filled with my favourite screenshots, a small BBS for my friends and I to talk about the movie (it eventually turned into general chatting and early internet memes), and a copy of the movie's script that people could download as a TXT file. It's fun to think back to the kid I was then, wish I'd saved a copy of that site.

[@Kazooples]

I’ll never get over the loss of Geocities, my entire childhood was on there(and neopets)

[@Sigmacast]

Do yo regularly access oocities? Thousand of geocities pages were saved there.

[@IfautahSkimm]

Ah! Neopets. What a beautiful fucking mess that site is.

[@Lilnaturefreak13]

5:19 Those soundbites really took me back!! Ive gotten the chance to go to disneyworld with a family and man, ive never cared much for disney but the haunted mansion ride was SO GOOD. I genuinely was in awe of the audio/visual experience. Another great video btw

[@Darxide23]

The "headings" and "subsections" as you keep calling them were the Cities and Neighborhoods, respectively. When you created your account, you picked which city to be a part of and then you looked for a Neighborhood that you wanted to join. In each neighborhood there were something like lot numbers. So you could be at lot 4120 making your full GeoCities Address something like "Area 51, Dimension, 4120." This is why the site was called Geo _CITIES._ And there were a limited number of lots in each neighborhood, meaning they could fill up. As more neighborhoods filled up, more were created. Occasionally, new cities were also added. And in the earliest days of GeoCities, each neighborhood was supposed to have a more specific genre or area of interest, but almost immediately the idea of having specific niches be in their own specific neighborhood was abandoned. EDIT: Maybe it was Region instead of City? I honestly can't remember anymore. But the "subsections" were definitely called neighborhoods.

[@juliana.x0x0]

Sometimes I get really nostalgic for my teenage years, and luckily I remember my xanga url. I can only see a few photos and no posts these days, but it's still cool to see my own time capsule on the internet.

[@Goldtiger142003]

I had a Geocities website a long time ago. I don't remember what it was though, and even if I did, I can't channel my inner child to remember what went through my mind back then. I really feel like I lost a part of myself by losing that small website. A little part of me that will never come back.

[@bennizone]

One of my favourite comics growing up was hosted on Geocities, so sad it's no longer accessible - It was a Sailor Moon-inspired fancomic about the author and her friends. It was more than a 100 pages long, all about their wishfulfillment of being cool superheroes... it inspired me so much, definitely shaped me. Thanks for looking at some of these old netizen-homes, I'd love to see more!

this was exactly my Internet era (i was a teen in the late 90s). this was such a nice throwback. very cozy. 10/10

[@zeronzemesh7718]

Those category headers weren't added after archiving, that's exactly how geocities worked when it was up and running. It was pretty random back then to find stuff, but that went for any place on the internet. When you went on the internet in the 90s geocities was probably 80% of what you looked at. Also, if you found a page you liked, you had to bookmark it or you would probably never find it again.

[@Sevenigma777]

Man this video elicited such strong old feelings I used to have when I was on the internet back in the day. Nothing compared to the anticipation when waiting for your modem to connect online nor the rush of dopamine you'd feel when it finally did. It was the literal wild west with very little oversight or corporate control. Everyday was a new mystery to be found and a new wonder to be seen like you were an explorer finding a new untouched continent everyday.

[@neon.noir.27]

First off: I loved this!!! I hope to see it become a series on this channel. I'm in that weird Millennial-Gen Z (Zillennial?) gap. I wasn't old enough to have used Geocities, but I was definitely around in the late 2000s when that level of personalization of pages was still rampant on DeviantArt. I still suck at coding, but I knew how to insert Journal Dolls, page backgrounds, plz accounts (we had minimal emoticon/proto-emojis on the site, so people made accounts with some, so you'd just mention the account and it would show up as their icon. The plz was present in every single one: I assume it was an identifier, but as a kid I thought it was sort of like treating the computer/site like it was semi-sentient/like if you thanked an AI chatbot today: "give me the image of [x], please"). I remember my entire account page was just widgets with a background of this checkerboard pattern that was black with interchanging rainbow glitter, a real sign of the times lmao. It also warms my heart to see the preservation of stuff like this, as well as content that shows the amazing things you find just getting lost in it all. I work in an archive of specifically pop culture material, and it's our job to try to convey this sense of wanderlust (but for the journey itself and it being via media of the past versus physical travel) to our visitors and to the world. We have an entire section dedicated to comics, and some are extremely rare and/or old. I sometimes wonder who used to own them: if they had Action Comics #1 as a kid, are they still alive? Was this their favorite character? The same questions come to me with this video: where are they now? Is that Renaissance Fair still going on all these years later, or is it defunct? Does the owner of Diznee Girls watch Defunctland now? Was DJ Hot Money Smooth a real person, or an Icy Hot Stuntaz clone? So many questions remain unanswered.

[@DebunkFile]

I admire the fact that anyone passionate about anything could easily make a site.. without commercial and all. I was trully at the dead end of this being born in 95 and only getting a computer when I was 12. Even at the late stages, it was still a much more fun and engaging place to be. (and a place to be slightly traumatized aha ) It's a shame how even I know how empty it feels now. I can only imagine if I was just a couple years older and had more access then , how truly saddened I'd be at the state it is now. I remember when GeoCities died , same year Michael Jackson passed!

Wanting to know more I went online amd would gind many snippets in MPEG format of whatever I could find. There was a website that I would frequent called Goku's Super Saiyan Website that had DBZ music that played as soon as you went to its landing page. There was one MPEG that showed a blonde Goku fighting a Blonde Vegeta, that little clip of them fighting burned into my mind. I believe this was in 97 or 98

Back in the day, it was pretty common for websites to have broken links or links to “under construction” pages as a joke.
