Ahhhhh the nostalgia...... everything is so digital these days, give me that dial up tone any day, the anticipation and hope that it would actually and finally connect :p

To be honest I preferred the alternative before dial up,,,,,,,,, 2 tin cans and a piece of string followed by a confirmation pigeon worked well for me.

I've got one from 97. I stumbled across it a long long time ago(not sure exactly how long). And it definitely made an impression on me that's sure to last a lifetime. And not necessarily in a good way. It's some strange shit. I link folks to it occasionally as a joke. Like "you wanna see the most insane website that exists?"

Check this one out(don't say I didn't warn you).

http://www.thule.org/

Anybody know how long this guy's been around on the web?



Surely he dates back to the 90s at least. http://www.subgenius.com/

EDIT: It says 95 on this "ancient subSITE". http://www.subgenius.com/fist1.html

EDIT 2: Wow! Maybe even before that??? http://www.subgenius.com/subg-digest/index.html
