Call me crazy, but have you tried asking Yahoo? Worst that can happen is they quickly say no, but you never know. Something that old and irrelevant to their current operations, maybe they would open source the old code. Or maybe they deleted it years ago. But you won't know unless you ask. I am curious what you would want with it? Geocities was coded so early in the history of the web that odds are that code isn't anything that you'd run again today.

>> Call me crazy, but have you tried asking Yahoo? That's what I'm doing by asking on HN - this is the best way to get to the right people. >>I am curious what you would want with it? Geocities was coded so early in the history of the web that odds are that code isn't anything that you'd run again today. Geocities has a uniquely creative design style that was a function of the Internet at the time and also peopke's relationship to it, and will never be repeated. It's design history.
