Here you'll find a comprehensive link-map to every site I list. They're
in semi-chronological order; I've given every site a number ascending in
the order that I linked to and reviewed them. Next to each site is the
number of every site it, in turn, links to. And, because I like to think
I have style (and to make both the numerologists and super spy stuff RSA
buffs happy), they are all prime numbers. What does all this mean? Either
countless hours of entertainment, or the site hasn't been around for very
long and you should come back in a few months. And maybe I'm turning the
internet into a hideous Cthuloid monster. Or returning the world to a tech
utopia. Or stealing your socks. Or I'm just too good at amusing myself (and
hopefully others).
Update: While trying to unearth the terrible secret of the internet and fighting
my way through the minions of the eldritch lords geocities and earthlink, I
came across
Area 51 Conspiracity, a dusty but well preserved link farm carbon dated 1998-2002. It
was similar to my site, except that he actually did things like research
and took the ideas people have quasi-seriously. And he does have a lot of good
misinformation. In fact, if his site didn't have a PETA sticker on it, I would
even go so far as to say it was worth looking at. You could put a PETA sticker
on anything and it stops being worth looking at, even a live rabbit dressed up
like Michael Jackson being dropped out of a hot air balloon
That aside, though, this kind of thing had "geocities and the webmaster forgot it existed"
written all over it. I'm not going to grab any original material from his site. Instead,
I'm just going to put all the links here. This means two things: One, I may actually
end up with sites that link to eachother (and relevant sites), and two, I won't have to
go digging for content, which means more frequent updates.
Update: The sheer number of links ConspiraCity (and the sites it links to) has unearthed is
incredible.
My goal is to, one day, get around to putting them all here, even if I won't be able to review
them all, along with the Bacon game-esque what-links-to-what thing I started. However, we're
talking about
thousands of individual websites organized in tight-knit paranoid communities numbering
between five
and a hundred members each, with some members going out of their way to dissociate themselves
from everything they wrote in their geocities days and attempting to return to relatively
normal lives (I had to find one webmaster, and thus his site, by looking through cellphone
tech support messageboards). This is, in short, a lot of work. Any
help would be appreciated; my
e-mail address is greenback@gremlin.net.
That said, I have gone ahead and researched all the links from ConspiraCity. Most of them
were dead, but a little investigation has turned up the sites they turned into when the
webmasters found enough money for real webhosting. The living sites are the ones I'm linking
to; you can always click on link 23 to grab the original dead links. For those of you who were
wondering, yes, I did that on purpose. For those of you who weren't, I had a questionable
reading list growing up, and it's really better just not to ask.
