“Sorry, GeoCities has closed”. That is the message that showed up since yesterday’s afternoon on Yahoo! © GeoCities web page.
GeoCities was founded on 1994 and offered a free web space for everyone. I had the pleasure to host my first web pages (literally) with them. I admit that I can’t recall what content I have put there but certainly it was a not-so-complex html code and a few pictures. I had internet access since 1993. Back then, internet usage was ‘restrictive’ in today means and was made up of pictures and text text and pictures which were brought up by a whooping speed of 2400 baud! There were no flashy ads, no videos and Internet (and) Explorer were two words with no apparent connection.
