Thanks for posting this, I thought it was long gone and forgotten. That server at one time was kept live on the Internet, and I showed that back in the day during a talk to demonstrate Linux capabilities. The page however says it was created in 1999, while I seem to recall it was about one year before, but the server is that one without doubt: I could never forget that photo showing it side by side with the matchbox.

Yes, first version was 1998, and was upgraded in 1999: https://aruntechgeek.wordpress.com/2008/08/30/worlds-smallest-webserver-matchbox-size-server/ https://aruntechgeek.wordpress.com/2008/08/30/worlds-smalles... AFAICR it stayed online several years. It is to be noted how the project belonged to the "wearable" laboratory/section. The related paper (it is a postcript inside a .gz archive) is still available: http://boole.stanford.edu/iswc.ps.gz http://boole.stanford.edu/iswc.ps.gz here it is in .pdf format: https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.18.4077&rep=rep1&type=pdf https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.18... In 2000 Sergei Brin used it in a talk as an example of what could be done with mobile devices: https://www.wired.com/2014/05/brin-mobile-2000/ https://www.wired.com/2014/05/brin-mobile-2000/

  Old GV opened both fine (even the gzipped PS).
