I thought web rings were just clutter, then a guy in a chat room proved me wrong
I used to think web rings were pointless, just a bunch of links that went in circles. Then one night in 1998 I was in an AOL chat room called 90sWebHeads and a guy named DialupDan told me to follow his astronomy ring starting from his homepage. I clicked through 14 sites in one sitting, each one run by a real person who loved stars, and I found a page with hand drawn planet charts I still think about. Now I get why those rings mattered, they were how you found people before search engines got good. Did anyone else have a web ring they actually finished all the way through?
