A remake of the og website sodaconstructor
https://panoramx.ift.uni.wroc.pl/~maq/felp.pl/sanjose/index.html
Amazing nostalgia. I can’t remember how to do it!
If it makes you feel better, I don’t think I ever really knew how to do it.
I’ve missed Sodaplay and Sodaconstructor!
I have one I know for a fact y’all don’t know about, but if I told you I’d probably almost certainly out myself on that site. So, no, sorry, not telling.
Anyone remember technorati? What about the nethernet? Ah that brings me back…
spotted in new ben stiller movie
it’s so over
You are sure that no one has heard of Homestar Runner on a website of technology savvy early adopters whose age averages in the 30s and 40s?
Look at my pfp. :-)
Cephalopods galore! Octopalooza!
http://www.vk2zay.net/ Maybe this is obscure enough?! I miss hobby sites like this!
Tons of retrocomputing/demoscene resources.
For a loooong time I kept ‘Amish Rake Fight / GFY’ on a bookmark to send to people.
It was just a page with a middle finger saying ‘Go Fuck Yourself’ and a counter saying how many people have been told to go Fuck Themselves.
After a decade or so, there was a page added with hate mail & various threats…the owner I’m sure had lots of fun with it. AFAIK it stopped working about 5-6 years ago.
MetaFilter
Oh darn, it seems the website isn’t up anymore. It was, to my knowledge, never archived and never properly indexed by a search engine. I have no screenshots, so it’s basically lost media. All this to say it’s unlikely anyone here has heard of it.
Well, it was an IWW split called the “International Workers of the World” (it seemed to be composed of at most 3 people). If my notes are right it was internationalworkersoftheworld.org (seems even DNS is completely dead now). Their webpage was simple HTML, from the dates it hadn’t been updated in years, and most of the body was complaining about IWW internal politics, and people who had long moved on from the union.
Woman got special government permission to go motorcycling in Chernobyl. She took pictures.
The site is still around.
A fansite for Takeshi’s Castle

It’s just incomprehensible that Mike has resisted organization and web design so long. It’s like a fossilized web site from the early Internet, preserved in amber for us to see.
woah I love this. No navigation bar needed, you just zoom and scroll at will to whatever takes your interest
I actually agree. I feel like there was a different ethos back in the earlier web that information density was a-ok. It feels like years more usable than just-in-time loading modules and constant clicking through pages.
I use his site all the time! Took a while to get the hang of where to find stuff but most important links and data is all there.
Amerikan!
The owner is my hero
Spent way too long solving a sliding puzzle. Love the pop up “Puzzle solved!” at the end.
Science fiction in Spanish :-)
Tendré que explorarlo
