about 13 years ago or so i decided to start my first website. at the time, geocities was all the rage, and offered free web hosting. the site still stands after all these years here. what i'm finding happening though is that every few years a linked picture disappears, and sometimes others come back. tables and whatnot don't look the same (maybe a result of different browser / versions - i haven't really looked into it, nor do i care to) and it got me thinking that these old abandoned websites are going through a sort of digital rot. they're discernible, but time has altered them. i'm having a hard time finding any other information on abandoned websites, as it seems mostly security related these days, and not related to the subject of one post blogs which say things like 'I'll try to update this blog as often as i can.' I seem to remember seeing a site about 10 years ago that was about abandoned websites...wish I could find that again.
