Found in my RSS feeds: GeoCities.live. Turn any Web pages into a 1990s GeoCities blink fest. Lots of fun.

I just discovered Old'aVista.

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: https://web.archive.org/web/20240000000000*/https://edition.cnn.com/US/OJ/

CNN 404 page: "Uh-oh! It could be you, or it could be us, but there's no page here."

I made these in, I think, 1998 in MS Paint and MS GIF Animator, frame by frame, pixel by pixel. They got very popular which also got them a hate page, haha.

In action with an unironic HTML MARQUEE tag: https://www.dronkert.nl/triton/boats.html

On my Rowing Technique page: https://www.dronkert.nl/triton/techniek.php

And at the rigging charts I copied from Steve Redgrave: https://www.dronkert.nl/triton/afstelling.php

(These old pages long since disappeared from the original boat club website that I made.)

Hey Mom, check it out — I’m a web designer! 😂 #Throwback #VintageWeb

I started thinking about the vintage web and web rings while looking through some old apps and then trying to get a browser to run under Mac OS 7.5.5 in Basilisk II just to verify that my old website works with older browsers.

(Spoiler Alert!) It’s kinda broken. I switched from inline attributes for styling to using inline CSS, so some pages had backgrounds and no gaudy blue outlines, and some didn’t. Then I got sucked into installing a period appropriate QuickTime. Pro started in 3.0 and the key I purchased apparently doesn’t work on it. 🙃 Had to try a couple of keys listed elsewhere, but it’s nice being able to watch the videos I have on my website again.

Well, here I am adding bgcolor and border attributes to HTML tags like a My First Webpage coder. 🥰

Heute mal wieder ins #MultiMedia Buch von #DataBecker geschaut (danke @82mhz) - die Fibel von 1994 zu Multimedia-Treibern, Klängen, Bildern, Animationen, Videos, #Hypertext und #Cyberspace. Und mit CD-ROM! Habe ich mir zum Schulpreis 5. Klasse ausgesucht und waren meine ersten Berührungspunkte mit #MIDI und #VisualBasic. #RetroComputing #VintageWeb
