LOL. Apparently I am old, but I remember the web before Facebook (or Google or…) existed. Everybody could (and many did) write on the web before Facebook. Geocities, My Space, or just create your own website. Believe it or not, but it was far simpler and cheaper to create your own website back then. There were tons of free hosting sites back then. You know what killed all of that? Facebook. This is why I am excited by the notion of Facebook dying. Maybe we can get back some of what we lost.
- Izkata 4y agoI remember my first website experiment, hosted on "20megsfree". 20 megabytes of free hosting on a subdomain, they'd put an ad banner at the top, and you could pay for more / to remove the banner. ..and oh wow the domain still exists. Homepage is unchanged from 2001. Copyright line in the footer stopped updating in 2005 though so no idea if it would still work...
