			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As of today, <a href="http://geocities.yahoo.com/">GeoCities</a> belongs to the past. After almost 15 years of offering free web space to anyone with &#8220;creative&#8221; ideas, GeoCities is no more. Yahoo! has decided to permanently <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8325749.stm">terminate</a> the service, as it was surpassed by the booming blogging and social networking sites.</p>
<p>Like many other internet users of my age, my very first web page was hosted on GeoCities. Half-coded in HTML and half in Frontpage, with lots of GIFs and different colours, my page was not very different from the rest of the GeoCities world! <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately for your eyes!), I haven&#8217;t kept any of the early versions of my GeoCities page. I only managed to retrieve the last version, which is not too dreadful! Here&#8217;s what the home page used to look like:<br />
<img src="http://alexmikro.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/geocities.jpg?w=630" alt="" title="geocities"   class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-764" /><br />
Note: The monkey was &#8220;evolving&#8221; into a human sitting in front of a PC, through a home-made GIF <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Goodbye GeoCities! We sure had a lot of fun together!</p>
