Yes, OP, there was a ton of awesome fic on Geocities and Angelfire

that is now gone forever, particularly in Buffyverse and in the Star Trek universe. I get a little sad when I go back to my own recs or someone else's rec list only to discover a broken link because of the demise of those two sites. I'd like to think the AO3 has a little more staying power, but who knows?

Rock on, OP. I think you've got the right idea.

I'm thinking of another site then that went down around the time of Geocities. Or maybe I'm conflating one fan's site that was called Angel something with Angelfire. But Geocities is definitely bust. :(

Sorry for the confusion!

Wrong

You can download Geocities for a whopping 652GB torrent.

I don't know what that means. :)

But I do know when I click on a fic that was hosted on Geocities the link is broken and wayback machine doesn't work on it.

nayrt

I believe that there was a massive archival project before Geocities went down, and everything that was hosted there got downloaded by people and put into a massive torrent that you can download.

So, if you're looking for something on Geocities, you can get it, as long as you're willing to download 632 gigs of Geocities crap and sort through it for what you're looking for.

Ah. Okay. Thanks for the clarification. :)

Hm, just found something that might be related:

I'm the above anon, and out of curiosity I googled the fansite I was talking about. I just found it saved under the same URL as the original, except it's hosted at geocities.ws/etc instead of geocities.COM/etc. Not sure how widespread that is, but it might be worth a try.

Have you found this with lots of GC links? I know of one fansite I used to visit there, and the wayback machine works on it.
