The Old Web
This page is part of our "classic" site -- content
that's friendly to old computers: no SSL, no CSS, no security. No
need for anything but content we find interesting.
The old world wide web may not have been pretty, but it was functional, useful and free of algorithmic manipulation. Here's some of my favorite content that still works on retro devices...
