Go back in time!

Just a bit of light hearted fun, for all of you who remember the web in 1998!

Geocities might be no more, but thanks to the Geocities-izer, you can give any site on the web that straight-out-of-1998 look and feel.

The site –- complete with a Netscape Now button, an odometer-like traffic counter and plenty of animated GIFs — lets you enter in a URL and have it instantly transformed into something that would’ve made many a Geocities user swoon back in the day.

Above, you can see Geocities-ized dataplex site, which also included a MIDI of the 1990s hit by the Elton John “Candle in the Wind” when I gave this nostalgia-soaked tool a spin.
