GeoCities v2!! :-)
EDIT: for the younger generation GeoCities was (or seemed like) the place to build your homepage on the WWW on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_GeoCities https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_GeoCities .. now they should implement Webrings too! (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring) and page counters and in particular online guestbooks!

I treat Olia Lialina as the prime academic expert on this: https://interfacecritique.net/book/olia-lialina-from-my-to-me/ https://interfacecritique.net/book/olia-lialina-from-my-to-m... > There was no time in the history of the Web when building your home was celebrated and acknowledged by opinion leaders. The idea that you should invest time in building your corners of cyberspace was mercilessly suppressed by hosting service providers and “fathers” of the Internet.
