Oh man I used the shit out of altavista! I swear I could find anything on there no matter how obscure, it seemed like magic at the time.

Yeah, Altavista was the shizzle back in the day. I miss it, too.

IIRC, it didn't even have its own domain name for a long time, it was altavista.digital.com. There's another company I miss, having used Vaxen back in college.
