From reading it, it sounds like it's for both. GeoCities wasn't just about quirky fun, there was some actually decent websites.
GeoCities wasn't about things being super friendly, it had a learning curve there. You had to sit down and read up on HTML and write it up and iterate on your failures, and maybe people don't want that anymore but at least someone is offering another way.
- lmm 13y agoBack in the day it felt like most GeoCities sites were made with FrontPage or Dreamweaver. Do they even exist any more? Would those kind of static sites be acceptable on today's web?
- nicholassmith 13y agoI think both do in various forms. I'm sure they'd be acceptable to the 90% of people who aren't involved in the tech scene, or are overly fussed on design.
- satellitecat 13y agoI actually kind of miss static sites. These days everything seems to be about pumping out new content, like a newspaper, whereas static sites were more like books. They had chapters, an order to read, table of contents... you explored them, rather than just read through them backwards.
