I keep one of my older sites online under this domain. The site was StudentNet, a project I undertook in secondary school to teach other students about the net etc. It never really did much of anything and I just keep it there for posterity more than anything else. I was intrigued to see whether the hit counter still worked and low and behold it did and it’s been counting visitors since 9th July 1998. 
The grand total of visitors in almost 9 years? 10,100.

Wow, I forget how young you are sometimes. I can’t believe you kids had teh interwebs in school. We just discovered it in college. Mind you, I was late to that show too; in school we had a state-of-the-art Apple IIgs. Get this: It had a colour screen, and one of those brilliant 3.5 inch floppy drives, you could store loads of stuff on them. Especially if you got your hands on a 1.4mb disk.

The second I opened StudentNet I recognised it immediately.

Kev: Colour screen. I do remember doing some sort of basic “progamming” that made a turtle go around the screen. Think we also had some form of Atari.
Robin: Yes, 1999. I was in sixth year. By god that’s crazy. I remember your site and all.
The competition was fierce back then.

I wonder else who migrated from the spin-a-web days too!

They have to be lurking around the net somewhere.
