Slightly off-topic, not related to accessibility, and maybe it's nostalgia, but seeing that yahoo page from 99, I miss that web. Everything is so easy to see from there. Sure, it looks boring. But it's so functional, for me.

Everything is so easy to see from there.

Yahoo has thousands of categories of links, so you're really only seeing a tiny portion. Finding something niche required drilling down three or four levels (and exploring if you couldn't find the right one.) Google's search box is much more efficient, but you lose the fun of discovery.

That's fine - I would expect to find something niche after doing some research.

Show me an example of "something niche" being available. Right away?

I don't always have something I want to search for, either.
