May 22nd, 2008. comments are open 0 commentsGhosts Etc.?

Remember the hayday of Geocities and Fortunecity? The, create a website and we’ll host it for free if you don’t mind us billboarding your website with ads?

It began small. Just one banner ad. Now, it’s turned into this ridiculous ad infested wasteland.

Why do I tell you this?

Because I found a website I spent a significant amount of time on in college that I used to experiment with JavaScript and Flash. It was called, “Ghosts Etc.” and was focused on gathering information regarding the paranormal.

It was a nice thought. But, I let it go and found it again today for the first time.

There are a ton of ads, the navigation is hard to find (you have to look on the far right) for the “Navigation >>” link which then brings up the “real” nav on the left frame (remember when frames were cool?)

So, for your amusement, I present Ghosts Etc.

For extra credit, who is the artist who’s song was converted to midi and plays on this site? (this sentence was ridiculously hard to write)

For extra extra credit, can you name the song?

It always cracks me up when people screw up a cliche. I had a roommate in college that did it constantly. He’d say something like, “You have free range.”

Um, did you mean, “free reign?”
