Today I ran across @ricmac and his new, truly expansive piece on the history of (the admittedly centralized) GeoCities and its origins.

I had a GeoCities site myself in the 90s (that is sadly lost to time now), and I didn't know all this wild history Richard dug up for this.

A must-read if you're into the whole 90s early web thing: https://cybercultural.com/p/geocities-1995
