Oh man. The shot of nostalgia brought on by this brought me almost to tears. I had them all, Geocities, Tripod... Saturday mornings hooked in to ftp.idsoftware.com at 33.6k and hand-crafting updates to my sites in notepad.exe (using uppercase tags, naturally).

It's ridiculous... the web is a much better place, technologically, nowadays, but something for me has been lost. As the author alluded to at the end of the article, it's all frameworks and abstractions. It's high gloss and low content. Bah.

And with this post, I have become my parents.
