star there was A LOT of drama
-
But just a few banner ads to deal with, maybe a couple of popunders. Also really good forums and cool websites, you could learn a lot..
-
It was a scene and it was sometimes awesome! But I LOVE having Wikipedia, Spotify, Raspberry Pis, cloud servers, more activism + more.
-
On the other hand, no Twitter
-
I know but DMs are sometimes cool?
-
Also Twitter taught me a lot about racism and made/makes me really look hard at myself!

IMAGE MAAAAAPS
-
Server side image maps or client side image maps?
-
I didn't have a server I was 8
-
No one did, but if you were lucky your isp gave you a couple of cgi-bin things you could use
-
I remember reading about them, and the spec for how to do them

fly to paris without your phone!
-
Wait what how does this work
-
My fave vacations are going to a foreign city without a phone. Either leave at home or let it die and don't charge it for the entire time
-
If I go to Paris without my phone will I find the Internet of 1998?
-
I thought that was metaphorical not literal :)

Do 1996
-
I mean 1996 was great. Style options: Bold, underlined, or italic. <h1> for emphasis. All text centered. So easy.

I mean sooort of -like, the internet archive is great but it's not exactly like going back to then, with all the pervasive hope and newness
