Finally, the missing block to building geocities v2!

We need a new an HTML5 what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor (a new Frontpage/Dreamweaver). Sadly, the HTML "contentEditable" API is in a very broken state.

I'm missing a spinning skull GIF, a permanent under construction sign and blinking pink text that scrolls incessantly. GooGleoCities, perhaps?

With animated horizontal rules and an animated background.

Web people, please don't start to use effects that are only supported by one single rendering engine (okay, Blink+Webkit).

These have been around (and in beta apparently) for a few years. You may be fooled by the shiny new wrapper around the docs into thinking this is a new thing.

They can't possibly have been around that long - according to all the other very original comments here, the web would have imploded and turned into 1995 geocities or some such.

GeoCities was exactly what came to my mind when I saw the "fire" animation.
