I love this kind of internet archaeology. It's crazy to think how many sites like this have just been sitting untouched for years. What else is out there?

> John Labovitz's e-zine-list - very well maintained, comprehensive list of cyberspatial "zines". Zines are the killer app of cyberspace, like the bible was for Gutenberg.

My favourite is http://perdu.com, from 1998. I've been using it with ping when testing internet connectivity for years

May I present Well Made Web, a gallery of inventive and distinguished websites: https://wmw.thran.uk
One example is Internet Related Technologies which was reporting on new web standards during 1998-2001, last updated in 2001 and still online for all that time: https://wmw.thran.uk/dowdy/2.html#irt
From IRT we have why use CSS, in case anyone still needs convinced: https://irt.org/articles/js135/

I used to check ITHell every day, the same way I read HN now. Then around 2001 it just sort of died, and has been frozen in time ever since.

There's a nostalgia about the old web, where things were uplifting, good and positive.

It's impressive (or possibly sad) how well the joke has held up.

What's great about zombocom is that the only limitation is yourself.

Take a look at the page source. Unfortunately they stopped updating their Twitter (X) in 2013.
