RIP GeoCities
Wow! For a split second, I traveled back in time. I just read that Yahoo! is shutting down its GeoCities service. Do you remember GeoCities and the annoying floating toolbars? I had not heard the GeoCities name in years and now I learn it is shutting down.
I remember visiting personal sites and cheesy corporate sites on the free hosting service. It seemed like every other site in the country was hosted at GeoCities. Since we are traveling back in time, whatever happened to AOL and its FREE AOL DVDs?

haha, at first I thought to myself “oh my goodness I can’t believe GeoCities is shutting down. what a travesty!” Then I remembered I hadn’t actually visited a GeoCities site since I had an AOL dialup connection.
