Imagine Radio was one of the first personalized radio services that allowed users to build their own stations. It was purchased by Viacom in 1999 and incorporated into MTV’s website.

In den Neunzigern war das Internet eine Welt der Freaks und Nerds. Wer sich nicht benahm, bekam von den alten Hasen ordentlich auf die Finger.
Nach den Newsservern und Mailinglisten kamen Foren und später die sozialen Netzwerke.

Wo wir heute stehen? Schau dich um!

Warum schalten wir dieses Internet nicht einfach mal für ein Jahr ab? Mein Gefühl sagt mir: Viele Probleme würden sich von selbst lösen.

Mahir produced one of the first viral websites. I remember this from the early days of the internet, and Borat is 100% a rip-off of Mahir. Who else is a Mahir fan? donkeyontheedge.com/mahir/ #Mahir #90sInternet #memes #EarlyInternet #90s

Looks like CNN finally took down their old O J Simpson trial page:

Seems they did it fairly recently too, the last wayback machine capture was in July this year: web.archive.org/web/2024000000

I'm trying to find a screenshot of the loading screen for Netscape Navigator 2 (ideally for Windows). Does anyone know if it even had one? I can't seem to find it emulated anywhere.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about from Version 4. Am I searching for the right term? Loading screen?

Farewell, . Today, June 26, we'll log off for the last time. 🌐✨ Your "uh-oh" defined an era of digital connection. From '96 to '24, you connected millions. Here's to the memories and the early days of online chat.

Who remembers web rings from the internet of the 90s? I miss them. It was a great way to find content related to whatever website one was looking at. Back in he days of Geocities, Tripod, and Angelfire. #internet #WebRing #90sInternet

My bookmarks in Firefox are an absolute mess. Spent an hour this morning going through them, sorting them into folders and deleting dead links (about 50%, I estimate).

Realised I don't really use them. Does anyone regularly access their browser bookmarks these days?

Wow yeah, that was easy. Everyone please welcome @aanvvv to the family! #bots #USENET #90sInternet
