RIP, Geocities. Today is the day that Yahoo is pulling the plug on Geocities and all of its background midi and tiled background infested pages. Anybody that’s grown up with the Internet knows that Geocities is home to countless fansites dedicated to video games, video game characters, fanfics, crappy screen art collections, and all sorts of websites that refused to grow up with technology. Geocities once had its place, but in recent years it has been nothing more than a dumping ground for spam and cheap websites. For posterity, I’ve screencapped the first Geocities site that came up in a Google search for “Geocities Zelda” Take a look (click to enlarge).
