The Geocities-izer turns your favorite websites into a Geocities page
The Geocities-izer: Make any webpage look like it was made by a thirteen year-old in 1996
Remember the old internet community Geocities? If you’re unfamiliar or lacked an internet connection back at that time, Geocities was a network of user-built pages. Kind of like your modern-day equivalent to a Tumblr or Wordpress blog.
It was the cool thing to do on the internet during those days. Heck, even I had one!
Unfortunately, all good things come to an end.
Yahoo initiated the kill-switch on Geocities on October 26, 2009, and at the time, it was rocking with at least 38 million users. Now, they’re all gone.
