I remember seeing it, I think from HN when I was still a lurker. I bookmarked it, but never got around to trying it.
Some things are best left to the fond memories. I got an sdf.org account a few months ago, and that quickly demonstrated to me that nostalgia occurs when things happened so long ago that you forgot about all the not-great things like lag, terms that don't agree on what a backspace is, newsgroup spam, every program having completely different idioms, etc. My newsfeed config randomly disappeared after the third day, which was a very accurate representation of "back in the day" that I had forgotten about until that moment.
