Geocities is dead. I don't miss it at all. I avoided Geocities like the plague like MySpace. The clashing colors, the blinking and scrolling text, the chance that some horrid tune would start playing, and worst of all, finding a site that hadn't been updated since the 90's made me want to claw my eyes out. Just like MySpace does.
There are so many ways for someone to "be on the Internet" and at the same time prove that they are completely ignorant of technology. Its like Yahoo bought Geocities just to laugh at all the users' sites created there. I hope it was worth it Yahoo! Now we can cross out having a Geocities site as one of the havens for the technologically ignorant. Don't worry! All you lost Geocities luddites! MySpace is still around, at least for now. Sign up quickly so you can update your "Internet presense" with more vommit inducing colors and ear piercing music. It will take some getting used to. But I'm sure you can handle moving from 1998 to 2003 technology.
Wow! This nasty virus I have is really making me grumpy.
