Reminds me of the stinkymeat project [0] for some reason.
Sweet memories from a more playful online experience, and probably part of the reason I turned vegan.
90s web was a weird weird place and this was a truly disgusting project in many ways. One of my earliest memories of something turning into a "meme", there were t-shirts being sold referencing it at one point.

I think an excellent use of someone's time would be to curate a website that corrals as such old/classic 'project' webpages and protoblogs.
I would love to spend hours clicking around on the twenty-years-past internet of my youth.
I particularly miss an old game called Vagabonds Quest; essentially just a perl chatroom with basic DnD classes/leveling built in for competition.

If the site layouts and design weren't clue enough on how old this is, the high res photo links are 640x480 pixels!

Surprisingly, in this context, it's a good thing. I'm not sure I would be able to stand those photos in >1 megapixel size.
QOTD!
