Neocities, the home for a post geocities personal web zone. - SpookyZalost - February 22nd, 2019
Anyone here heard of neocities?
I run my own personal site off there but it's great because like geocities before it they have a nice community aspect with web rings, link banners, button pages, etc to create a nice close nit community with everyone having their own personal websites for whatever they want.
https://neocities.org/
I highly recommend poking around, it's kinda neat to see a living example of an evolution of cyberspace that I thought had faded after the end of myspace and the idea of personal domains and webpages.

Always glad to see these corners of the web still existing and being nurtured, and not everything going the way of the mainstream Google, Facebook, Youtube direction.

right?
I only vaguely knew about geocities and angel fire from the before times, back when AOL was still a thing.
sadly I never got to be a part of it way back when and only really became interested posthumously when doing some cyberarcheology and research into retro-cyberspaces.

I spent WAY too much time as a kid making pages for no one to ever see. :
Got me interested though, and I guess it worked out since I now make a living dealing with computers.
