There is still hope: http://code.divshot.com/geo-bootstrap/

That might be the best use of bootstrap I've seen.

The smoothness of the marquee text is irritating. ;-) On a more serious note (haha), awesome theme. Tempted to think up something to build with it :-D

I'm running a production site that lets you pick from 5 different Bootswatch themes... What's one more?! It's tempting...

Huh! It's choppy on my Firefox Nightly, but smooth on Chrome. Why?!

That animation on form input errors is amazing

I want to sneak that in as an Easter Egg for some serious corporate web app I'm working on in future.

This is... amazing...

great job!

Every now and then I go to the Space Jam site because for some reason they still host it. Some great 90s web stuff in there, especially all of the tiled backgrounds and liberal use of frames. https://www.warnerbros.com/archive/spacejam/movie/jam.htm

Did you know that Space Jam is one of Servo's test cases? https://ask.metafilter.com/302664/How-does-the-Space-Jam-web...

HN user kyledrake started https://neocities.org/ in 2013 and it is going strong.

Can confirm, going strong.

We don't get a ton of media attention (and when we do it's usually stupid and focused on anachronistic design rather than creative control), but we're still growing steadily and getting a lot of really interesting new web sites and traffic.

Just updated my account to paid subscriber.

My own old page: https://mat.tl/archive/1994.htm

Hey, do you want to collaborate somehow? A friend and I built this, and I know you like IPFS, plus we both miss the Geocities era, so we can probably find something to improve:

https://hearth.eternum.io/

Let's at least talk about it. Send me an email.

Neocities has some experimental support for IPFS, but there's much room for improvement here.

I wanna say neocities already builds on top of IPFS. https://blog.neocities.org/blog/2015/09/08/its-time-for-the-...

You are the target audience for https://wiby.me - the search engine for old school websites

This is a fantastic search engine. I clicked 'surprise me' and ended up at http://homebrewcpuring.org - a web ring! I don't think I've seen a web ring in 15 years. I wish they were still popular; what a wonderful way to discover new stuff.

I clicked "Surprise Me" and got this creepy page:

http://idiom.com/~beverly/hans_resume.html

Very creepy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Reiser

Oh wow, that appears to be real (it predates his infamous crime.)

Clicked "surprise me" and it took me to DopeROMs, a website that I still use periodically.

We need a wiby.me for any given time frame on archive.org.

Check out the (official?) site to buy Wheel of Fortune/Jeopardy! tickets for some nostalgia: http://www.wheeljeopardytickets.com/

I don't think it's official. If you click on the links on that page, you are directed to the official Jeopardy and WOF websites. I suspect that at one time there were quite a few ads on this website. Glad it's still hosted though. I love looking at these sites, brings back a lot of great memories.

For example, when my school first got internet access. It was on two computers in the library. Each class would get scheduled time to come and "surf". You would prepare for your upcoming slot by coming up with a list of urls. I remember wanting to go to the TSN website (Canadian ESPN basically). They would list it during shows and I remember having to watch for a while because I couldn't write it all down at once... http://www.tsn.ca I would get a few characters, then have to wait for the next splash of the url.

Ex. https://www.jeopardy.com/show-tickets/

It says on the page that it’s the official page of the studio making those two shows.

Wait, Dreamweaver is not longer a thing?!?!

Dreamweaver is still very much usable:

1. Get a copy of Dreamweaver 8, or 9[1].

2. Switch it to 'code' view only.

3. Install the HTML5 intellisense updates.

4. Create a new 'HTML template' that has HTML5 header tags.

5. Enjoy!

One perfectly good and usable HTML/JS/CSS editor, with what I feel is still the best intellisense for CSS around.

[1] '8' is better, as it's before Adobe took over, added bugs and renumbered it '9'. Seriously... they are functionally the same product.

It still has functionality missing from newer editors

How can that be, why do they continue to fund development of the product if they aren't going to keep up with current trends.

I think Adobe moved a lot of that type of offering to other projects like XD, but I'm not really in that space.

That's what the wayback machine is for! It's good for most personal pages back to about '99.

https://web.archive.org/

It's awesome if you want to see which animated separator GIFs and crazy tiled backgrounds you were using.

Assuming the images ever load haha. This was me in 1998: https://web.archive.org/web/19981202215109/members.xoom.com/...

Ah yes the 90s...

https://web.archive.org/web/19990223201901/http://members.xo...

That really brings back some memories.

https://twitter.com/wwwtxt is always there to remind you of the good times of the Internet.

See their site for more 90s glory: http://wwwtxt.org/tagged/txt

Back in 97 I had a PS1 (then known as PSX) news site on Geocities that had a weekly newsletter with game reviews contributed by other internet randos. I actually got some free games to review from companies. I was too young to think of making a backup when it fizzled out, and I couldn't find it on that Geocities archive site. That made me deeply sad.
