My first actually-online website was on Angelfire. I’ll never see it again, because:

1. It was auto-deleted after a period of inactivity,

2. The Wayback Machine doesn’t know about it, and

3. My local copy was deleted by Microsoft thanks to a bug in Windows. (I was moving a folder across my home network from my old Windows 98SE computer to an XP box, and when the move operation encountered a folder with an accented character in its name, the entire operation failed — and deleted all of the data that was to be moved.)

What exactly did you have on this website?

Once is happenstance, twice is a coincidence, three times is an act of war. :O!

Well, the oldest I had called “Kids’ Rave Book Reviews” — KRBR for short — and I had started off what I vaguely hoped to be a community project by posting my review of The Ear, The Eye, and the Arm, which I had just re-read in sixth grade.

It seems www.angelfire.com still exists in some sense... redirects to angelfire.lycos.com although it doesn't appear to be free.

Expages, anyone??

Remember Maxpages as well?

Ahhhh I am getting so nostalgic. Remember when the HTML marquee tag was a thing.

Oh man, my pokemon Maxpages sites. I wish they were still around. I used to go back and check on the sites of my 10 year old self.

I was more homestead.com
