zombo.com was launched in 1999. I remember in high school you’d see the new fancy web kiosk’s the school put up just displaying it as a joke. and being locked out of the address bar so you couldn’t change it. The fact that this url has been renewed, maintained, and updated with all the advancements web browsers have made in the last 24 years, just to have this useless site still exist amuses me to no end.

    Okay, while we’re talking about really old novelty websites, I’ve got one I remember, but can’t find. The best way I can describe it is “organic paisley Flash.” It was just a lot of colorful alien-biological shapes that, when you clicked on certain parts of them, would move around and change in an animated transition to another weird abstract scene.

    Anybody know WTF site I’m describing?
