It’s just incomprehensible that Mike has resisted organization and web design so long. It’s like a fossilized web site from the early Internet, preserved in amber for us to see.
I use his site all the time! Took a while to get the hang of where to find stuff but most important links and data is all there.
woah I love this. No navigation bar needed, you just zoom and scroll at will to whatever takes your interest
I actually agree. I feel like there was a different ethos back in the earlier web that information density was a-ok. It feels like years more usable than just-in-time loading modules and constant clicking through pages.

Spent way too long solving a sliding puzzle. Love the pop up “Puzzle solved!” at the end.

A Girls World.
Back in the 2000s, a place for young girls. Articles, recipes, I think games? I edited articles for a bit. I use to be able to directly connect where I’d been online to there, in the sense of, “banner on website suggested this website and talked to people there which lead to this and then that and now to here” but my memory is bad now so I can’t.
If it still exists I doubt it’s anything like the original.
