Re: Websites you used to go on when you were younger
-Neopets
-those websites with little dolls on
-I also used to chat a lot on chatrooms - mostly Yahoo chat, but also teenchat as well.
-hotornot.com before it turned crap
-myspace
-stickdeath
-I used to play music through Winamp and I used to spend ages looking for new skins for it
-I had a Yahoo geocities website and I'd update that all the time
-When I used AOL I used to spend a lot of time playing quizzes on the AOL quiz chatroom
-yahoo messenger, MSN, and icq featured a lot in my online life also!
I wasn't even that young. I was 16 when I first got the internet. The fact that I was on noepets and creating dolls is really really pathetic, I do realise that. -
Re: Websites you used to go on when you were younger
I still go on neopets

Does anyone remember a website that was called youruledaschool.com or something? I have a memory of its title but not exactly what it did... I think it was made by an american cereal company?
And the Bubblegum website, that was awesome.
I guess myspace counts too, as it's been abandoned! -

http://www.faceparty.com/
http://www.fat-pie.com/
http://www.newgrounds.com/
MSN chat rooms before they got closed down.
Various goth websites.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/eastenders/games/ - no word of a lie... they've had that makeover game on there for at least 11 years... it might have been updated slightly, but you could give Dot Cotton a makeover on there back in 2000!
I also used to use the ICQ messenger. It was rubbish. -

Some working links I found in an old japan.txt file dated April, 2000:

Re: Websites you used to go on when you were younger
When we first got a computer one of my earliest memories was constantly logging onto the CBBC site,especially the 'Smile' section.

Then the rest of the time,I would be happy playing 'Pacman'
Bebo and MySpace came a bit later lol.....
Ohhhh yesss! How could I forget Piczo

Re: Websites you used to go on when you were younger
ebaumsworld, albinoblacksheep, piczo and Habbo, omg I was freaking obsessed with Habbo. I always had the most popular rooms

Then it was Myspace, it was all about how many friends I could get, so sad. I was on a 'train' where people would post me too their friends list and people would add me? I mean, why? Crazy times. I had like 40,000 'friends' -
Re: Websites you used to go on when you were younger
Habbo Hotel, yeah, ha! I'd forgotten that even existed...
I went on Runescape for a bit too when I was like 12 'cos one of my male friends went on it and I was basically in love with him and signed up so we could do missions together, hahaha
... in reality I used to spend all my time with the chickens picking up eggs. -
Re: Websites you used to go on when you were younger
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Girland. I was addicted to getting loads of points (acquired by doing 'community' things such as being a chatroom moderator at 3am lol), I loved it! Heh.
I could never work out how to use Habbo Hotel.
Also MySpace, MSN Messenger, Smash Hits message boards. Wasted teenage years.
