Fellow greybeards... What is the greatest technological advancement in your lifetime thus far?

I was sitting in my office, trying successfully to avoid any sense of productivity and started thinking about this today.

Someone created a retro browser simulator to surf the 'net' as it looked circa 1995

A cool project created by Ilya Kreymer which displays archived websites on browsers that would have worked in the 1990s.

Did you play fantasy sports?

What as the first website you used for fantasy sports? Mine was Sandbox.net from the mid 90s. Does anyone else remember Sandbox? I was top 10 nationwide by "hacking the system" for every sports season.

The UK's craziest car leasing website - LingsCars.com

Whilst the site has grown up, you can still see what it was like back in the early 2000's. Surprisingly, at the time, this was the leading car leasing website in the UK. https://museum.lingscars.com/

***Important Annoucement About Upcoming Guidelines for The Old Web***

I just got done replying to a comment in another post about a website that was posted twice in less than a week with only a couple days apart. Here is the reply I wrote and thought that it might be better suited to the community at large so that it gets more reach and discussion

About

The Old Web was filled with weird and obscure personally made websites. The aesthetic of the Old Web has become nostalgic to those that lived during this time and a curious oddity to the younger generations. Many of these websites are still around, sitting like time capsules of a bygone era. Some are still being updated, some have stayed the same for literally decades. Many went dark years ago and are lost to time, only explorable via the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

Regardless of how these sites are found and accessed, this community is about keeping them alive in the collective conscience. Newer sites with that hand coded, old web aesthetic, are welcome, as well as actually old ancient websites stuck in the bowels and corners of the Deep Web. The more interesting and obscure the site, the better.

Happy Surfing ๐Ÿ„โ‹†.เณƒเฟ”*:ใƒป
