Yahoo Kills GeoCities Today

i used my geocities for p0rn

www.xkcd.com did a tribute to GeoCities on their main page today.

What an epic first post.

What an epic first post.

Geocities was my very first homepage back in like 1996-97. It was kinda like social networking. Sad to see it go. I wonder if my old page is still up. I haven't checked it about 10 years.

Good bye useless results in google

now just need to get rid of the fake search page result lol

like one of those

http://www.filehipp.com/ (instead of www.filehippo.com)

What a great example of an overpriced .com bubble purchase that was.
gg Yahoo

shed a tear for the reason many of us got into web design

Used mine to post meaningless stories about absolutely nothing, whatever was on my mind that day. I guess you could say I used to blog, facebook, or tweet before those terms became popular. Of course, I had the mandatory overly-busy repeating backgrounds, poorly-written javascript, and after a few months, all the other webpages I linked to went down (so many other free hosts fell by the wayside).

I also uploaded my latest C++ projects as I completed them in high-school. I don't think anyone ever saw my site, I set my own counter to 1-million hits, and I think it had 1-million and 10 before I stopped updating it a year later.

Once upon a time I used it for, um, emulation files .

I had made a site for my high school rock band...

Wow, geocities (gee-yaw-sitties)

SilliconValley/5222 .. was it case sensitive then?

i experimenteed with page design early on, i got pretty into it (then i never really learned css layout till recently. i hate web design now)

my clean quake3d configuration with menu system for types of game and basically just facilitated f***ing people up. no go to rocketjump alias i dont htink, i was snobby like that, haha.

info on kali. ipxspx over tcpip emulator. warcraft2. was great.
blizzard scratched a winning lotto ticket sorta.

my xdhtmlblehhh will never be good.
i used frames. shamelessly. at least i made the borders invisible and
the backgrounds didnt slide against each other.
my jpegs were awful. i had no concept of how fucked my hig res texturized whatever was going to get demolished when saved to size.
i used and too much.

funny how a space limit makes you produce so much mor

Wow, I used it to upload my school homeworks, mostly web pages for the multimedia class... ahhh good times

I used mine for a class in html markup. That was 1998. I haven't touched it since. I can't even remember the address.

Man, I sure do miss my old page at geocities.com/oh/42/52/72/9177/9/grotto/alley/trashbin/cerealbox/marshmallow/mold/home.htm

lol. Used it once. Never cared since. Bye bye.

Personally I was banned from Geocities in 2001 for illegal distribution and hosting of unlicensed image properties.

Geocities, the first place to ban me for committing a crime.

Crazy, I always thought Yahoo had a pretty abundant amount of space for pointless stuff like GeoCities sites. I have a Yahoo e-mail account with over 40,000 unread messages. Sorry GeoCities, when push comes to shove, Yahoo has to make room for my e-mails I don't read.

I did all my GeoCities pages with the powerful Notepad! Full HTML code. Ah, those times...

Last updated on 1996.

i put up guitar tabs back in highschool with geocities

used it for my html homework

My geocities account? it was 1999. I was very very newb, I actually used html stuff I found in some folders of my compaq 5600i machine. It had red letters that spun in 3d "compaq". I felt I accomplished something. I hated the cost, I hated the bankruptcy, I hated the whole thing...It stayed there for quite some time.

I posted a site in 1999 with geocities, I can say back then HTML was big and we used notepad rather than MSofts webmaker.... The old school days.... now we have easy child like facebook and the crap they put up today are too easy for kids it makes me sick....

OG geocities was the og facebook when websites and pages were truly unique and do it yourself kind of stuff.... creativity at its best in the early days of 'networking'........

I used Geocities for my first website. I wrote the whole thing in code. I didn't know M$ Frontpage and Dreamweaver existed. I thought that how everybody did it.

i used geocities too but even within about the first month it began to become irrelevant because they so often blocked my site or specific pages of my site when it would briefly surge in popularity. and we arent talking a lot of hits here ... truth be told, i'm not that popular. we're talking run of the mill type traffic like me posting a link from a forum like this and having visitors drop by to see pictures from my recent motorcycle trip or read what amounted to a blog posting and yahoo would would turn on its blocks.

so with that blocking, especially during my popular moments, i moved on almost as soon as i started there.

sayonara geocities. rip.

NOooooooooo... all my tiny useless websites from the 90s....

I created a Geocities website to blog about digital cameras and movie cameras when they were VGA resolution in 1998! I stopped updating in 2000 and Geocities emailed me that they were going to delete it for inactivity. Then it was bought by Yahoo and I got more deletion emails. Despite all that it wouldn't go away and when I just checked it now, it is still up! Where the heck is this thing being cached at?!?!

RIP geocites. It has always been pure nostalgia when i run across one of your pages in a search. Brings me back to a time when there was no twitter, myspace, youtube, or facebook. The amateurish sites brought a real feel of authenticity to the young interweb. I had a cheat codes site back around 96-97, at the young age of 8-9 years old. IDDQD anyone?

PS. Just realized that it was actually geocit*IES*. All these years of calling it geo-sites lmfao.

geoshi***** is dead? Can't really say im sad that I won't see those crappy massive single body paragraph web pages from google searches anymore. If you miss it you can always go to archive.org
