Loved that website http://blackpeopleloveus.com/

@thunderbong : Are you the author? People like to make some technical questions if the author is here. What is the tech stack? How do you identify the Web 1.0 sites? Is it automatic or a manual list? Are you filtering NSFW sites?

Nope, I'm not. Just found it interesting and posted here!

It took me here https://greem.co.uk/otherbits/jelly.html Nailing jelly to a wall: is it possible? Which I think is HN worthy in its own right. Also the author of that page and I have the same toaster.

Alternatively, the "wall" could be placed, nails first, into the jelly while it's setting, to allow the jelly to set around the nails. Then in the morning the bowl can be removed, leaving the jelly nailed to the wall.

I love this. Does anyone know how the list was compiled? I would suspect a custom web crawler that only indexes sites using certain tags. Which makes me wonder if there are any sites that would qualify with the exception of a modern js advertisement someone slapped on. I

What is really fascinating about these old websites is that they are still up and running. The content in the link you posted is over two decades old. But they are still paying the money for the domain name and keeping the website alive!

Wow, I was not expecting to be taken to such an interesting website on my first click: http://www.goodearthgraphics.com/ This site has an underground cave directory by state, cave virtual tours with photos, cave type descriptions, cave photography tips and much more. I may just use this website to plan my next road trip and explore some caves.
