Have you noticed how much shit the internet has become now? (2007)
&gt; &gt; Geocitites<p>&gt; Oh yes, the 90&#x27;s was so much better...<p>Yes they were, because geocities didn&#x27;t control your search results and did not force you to donate 10 seconds to some creepily targeted ad before serving any multimedia experience.<p>I&#x27;m not going to say technology was better, nobody misses Realmedia, but the internet was more like a street than a mall. You could look at some weird art or look at some interesting offers, it was up to you.<p>Now you have the illusion of autonomy in a carefully crafted walled garden of ads. Or rather: freedom is more easily found offline.
