I just saw Winamp after more than a decade! Nostalgia.

I recently put together a museum of ~68k Winamp skins if you want to feel that nostalgia a bit more: https://skins.webamp.org/

You think you had some nostalgia when you saw it... I used to work with the guy who wrote winamp.js. Good dude, now working at Facebook, I believe.

I am indeed! Thanks for the kind words Paul!

If anyone is interested Webamp is open source and can be found here: https://github.com/captbaritone/webamp

Lol, Jordan, it's almost like all anybody has to do to summon you is say "winamp.js".

There is even a custom skin in skins directory when you open Explorer.
