Stickdeath, Yahooligans, Geocities/Angelfire/Tripod, and of course MSN Messenger. I still use the notification sound from MSN as my text tone on my phone. Just feels right.\
That and traditional Web Forums. They're still around obviously, but not quite the same as they used to be.
Fondest memories are of using mIRC late in the night while listening to WinAmp.
That really whips the llama's ass.
I'm pretty sure that's technically still Web2 you're talking about, but I remember back in the day I would sometimes go to cracked flash game sites to play flash games with cheats (I was like 8)
The police still haven't caught me
My memory probably is more of early Web 2; I was born in the late 90s, so I suppose I missed the really wild west days.
Flash games were great though; it seemed like every company that even slightly catered to people under 30 had a website with some game on it.
Yeah, some of them were baller and now lost to time. Like Nickelodeon had an Avatar: The Last Airbender 3D penguin sledding game, man I would love to be able to play that again
I used to spend a whole lot of time on the Winamp forums where the community was just top notch.
I met my first girlfriend on MSN Messenger. ICQ used to be great too.
Way too much time in AOL and Yahoo chatrooms.
