Old Website Of The Day šŸŒ šŸŒ šŸŒ 

Ardalambion

First started in 1999, last updated February of this year. Incredibly in-depth site on Tolkienā€™s created languages. Includes lessons on how to speak Quenya, write ups on the other languages used in Tolkienā€™s books, translations. Itā€™s a lot!

Hereā€™s a bunch Iā€™ve found recently:

  • PlantStudio, last updated in 2002.
  • GeoNames, modern but looks straight out of 2005.
  • SemPress WordPress theme, modern but looks straight out of 2013.

I havenā€™t read the resources yet, but this is very cool: a historical archive of the Civil Disobedience Index from ACT-UP NY.

Rock and roll ! ACT UP were indie media pioneers - some old episodes of DIVA TV, their public access television show, are available online. DIVA stood for ā€œDamn Interfering Video Activistsā€. And hereā€™s the page about them !

Thatā€™s awesome, I didnā€™t know about this!

Change just a few words, and the section about how media has removed urgency and normalized AIDS could apply to COVIDā€¦

Two Old Websites for Today!

While googling something I came across this site, which lists the ways that people say ā€œbeware of the dogā€ on house signs in different languages. This led me to click on this site, which is devoted just to Latvian ā€œbeware of the dogā€ signs. Both of these websites please me.

Pixel Museum

the first and only virtual museum with
over 150 international top artists in different sections such as:
ā€œPhotographyā€, ā€œDigital Artā€ and ā€œPixel Artā€.

2002-2006 according to the footer but the link is still good! Really interesting way of presenting the art.

This is brilliant - both nostalgic and an impressive bit of web design. I particularly like the way that clicking on a picture opens it in a new window - thatā€™s not something you see often anymore!
