E-Historical Society Uploads 900GB Torrent of Geocities -- ALL of Them

tribute to geocities
For the past twelve months, our world has been different. Those happy shires where unicorns once fluttered and roses once glittered have, sadly, fallen silent and sparkle-less. Those shining metropolises were known as the "Geocities," and, since their disappearance, their shimmering, spastic, cartoonish denizens have been forced into exile, left to fight for the little remaining space on tweens' MySpace pages. Fortunately, one team of heroes has found a way to resurrect that lost world -- namely in a 900-gigabyte download. While the Web warlocks at Archive Team admit that the project will take some time to materialize, they hope to have uploaded the near-terabyte torrent to the Internet by the end of the day. If you are interested in helping to revive the Lost Civilization of Geocities, visit Archive Team's website, and follow the instructions posted there.
