I use chopsticks to eat with in public for no other reason than to piss Maddox right off.

Suck it, Maddox! :D

No mention of the Olsen Twins 18th birthday countdown.

one can always tell when a new check clears.

www.milk.com

One of the first websites I remember seeing back in 1994. Hasn't changed much.

^ Remember this?

I believe there were still Gopher and WAIS listings in the '96 edition. Wonder how many of those are still up.

Holy shiat yes. I believe it even had adult only sites listed.

It did. My parents gave it to me as a gift. They tore out the section for "sex", but missed "x-rated resources."

The Dole/Kemp was greenlit yesterday or Tueday. If you take a look at the whois, it was created in 2002

I was just explaining yesterday to a kid I tutor what a scary, ugly place the early web was. I should send him this link.

well.com

Founded in 1985, sold to Salon, Salon started to shop it out, the users purchased it from Salon.

The site for the Heaven's Gate cult is still alive ... unlike all of the Heaven's Gate cult members.  Link

Fat chicks in party hats. That is all.

one of my favorite places to send people

original site went away years ago but the site was saved here

I bought this book in 1994.

How the hell has taco.com not sold to Taco Bell?

Are any of the websites besides Alta Vista still used by those companies? Can anyone find the oldest still in use website?

People occasionally email me about buying the domain milk.com from me. I used to respond to such requests with, "How much are you offering?" These days, if you don't mention a number, I probably won't mail you back. However, let me warn you that I like the name and I have a reasonably well-paying job, so it'll have to be a pretty damn good offer. Note that a number (in whole U.S. dollars) which includes fewer than 8 significant digits to the left of the decimal point does not constitute "pretty damn good" in my book. That is, if you're not offering $10 million, I'm not interested.

Kibo had a website?

/remembers encountering his .signature in 1990, and it was old THEN

Last revised December 25, 2009, actually.

I'd recommend the Photo Gallery.

Aliweb has shiat itself. And it's not even one we've linked to.

No love for http://www.aerith.net/ ? First set up in 1995 updated almost daily and the graphics haven't changed a bit (still a fantastic database for comet observing)

Zombo.com is still alive. Still makes all your dreams come true.

Wow... WebCrawler was my search engine of choice before Google came around.

Kinda sad manbeef.com didn't survive

Slashdot hasn't changed in 15 years.

Battlefield Earth still on

It's not pizza. But, once-upon-a-time, I'm sure it could of gone for deep in the 8 digits.

I don't know if I've ever googled for 'milk'. But I google for 'MILF' so often, that everytime I try to type 'milk' it comes out as 'MILF'

Lunchlady: Are any of the websites besides Alta Vista still used by those companies? Can anyone find the oldest still in use website?

It would be a .mil. DARPA?

Oldest webpage I could find! Almost as old as me: http://pmichaud.com/grape/

jayhawk88: SNPP.com has been around since at least '96, and is still sporting a very "classic" look.

Here's classic style: Homer's Webpage

Hey! I'm on there a few times.

Oldest domain still in use for what it was originally created for is probably nordu.net. Next is probably bbn.com.

symbolics.com is a sad little museum compared to the great Lisp machine company it was.

I am deeply saddened that think.com now leads to thinkquest, not Oracle, though that would sadden me for other reasons.

Rockstone: Oldest webpage I could find! Almost as old as me: http://pmichaud.com/grape/

Cool, I remember that guy's site. Found it linked on one called "The Useless Pages" back in the days before cable internet. The grape one's not quite as funny as his Strawberry Pop-Tart Blow-Torches
.

andrewagill: I am deeply saddened that think.com now leads to thinkquest, not Oracle, though that would sadden me for other reasons.

ThinkQuest was created in 1996 by Allan H. Weis under his nonprofit Advanced Network and Services. The service was acquired by the Oracle Education Foundation in 2002

OK, now I need to crawl into a bottle. Don't let me out until Oracle is gone for good.

Why does everyone in this town use Altavista? Is it 1997?

/Disclaimer: I used Altavista exclusively for Babelfish until, eh, Google Translate started getting more awesome I guess
//Knew it was *far* from perfect but a good start anyhow
///Excite was my first internet homepage that I remember... oh, good times
////It's been Google since 2000, I think

Awww supergreg.com no longer available.

At least I can console myself with http://rathergood.com/

I made it a point to see that house while I lived in San Diego. I can't believe that 7 years later that site is still up.
