Cool site for seeing how things looked like back in the day, I was surprised some websites looked more like games then!
Yeah, web design used to be so much more diverse and fun back then. I'm hoping we can get back to that soon with services like Neocities being a viable alternative to template-site services like Wix.
I really miss skeuomorphism. Maybe I should take another trip to Neocities and consider making something maybe since I hear a lot of good things about it, and I hear it's free as well!


Too bad trends are very fickle things. Even if Skeuomorphism would make a comeback, do you honestly thing it would actually LOOK OK on our modern computer monitors compared to the ones used back then?

I don't see why it would look worse on modern monitors, having better capabilities than older ones. Some gloss and shadows to make things look less dull wouldn't hurt. Wouldn't you say Windows 7 looks more appealing than Windows 10? Sure, maybe some flat design is good sometimes to minimize distraction, but the amount of flatness in Windows 10 makes it very unappealing to me.

Unsure if this one really counts as a site, but give the Super Dimension Fortress a look.

It's a public-access UNIX system that's been going since 1987, you can sign up for free, and they give all their users free webspace and gopherspace (Yes, Gopher's still a thing).

https://music.ishkur.com

Interactive guide to electronic music, altough the info is biased it's still fun to read. Believe it or not I found this site as an article on Wikipedia.


https://minecraftcalculator.com

Not very cool but has some simple math calculations for Minecraft, I found this on Neocities :D

Last one I ever remember using and really enjoying some years back was Stumbleupon - completelly random sfw websites. Great thread


Pretend not to care about anything, but be bothered by everything.

You may be fast on the roads but it's no use on the track.
