  1. Love this kind of reflective content. I remember these sites very fondly, and while modern designs are much improved in many ways, there’s a residual charm, sincerity, and personality to these old ones that you rarely see these days.

  2. Appreciate information like this that makes you think. While I agree that current designs have many advantages, I still really like these older sites for the individuality, Monkey Mart , honesty, and charm that are sorely missing from most of the ones out there now.
