The Dead Have Such Interesting Names

As I was poking through the many Daria websites at left, I discovered an entire page of links dating from 1999. Almost all of the sites listed have been deleted or moved, and most of those still in existence have not been updated since the turn of the millennium. However, what is most interesting are the names of the extinct websites, names that modern-day website designers might wish to use for their own Daria sites. In particular I like Monster Trucks and Naked Models (from Jane's quote in "It Happened One Nut") and Lawndale City Limits. You might see other names worth appropriating, so have at it . . . and take a moment to sigh wistfully at the disappearance of those fabled sites that came before us, roaming the ancient plains of the World Wide Web by the millions in another net-time and -place.

LATE ADD: Speaking of the dead, the Dariacon Wiki was removed from the list at left, as the link no longer appears to function. Alas, alackaday. . . .
