What's the oldest defunct website you still keep in your bookmarks for nostalgia?

This used to be the search engine everybody used.... If they could just mantained being nr 1 we would never have had the evil search engine known as Google....
 
Oh my god, webcrawler. I remember when I had a shitty AOL website and submitted it to the various search engines at the time (Because you had to do that back then, apparently).

Yahoo, google, altavista, they were all easy and fast. Webcrawler on the other hand took fucking forever. I think they just had a database scheme that didn't scale well, because it just got worse and worse.

I used metacrawler for a while, but I noticed all the worthwhile results were from google and at the time google had a nice lightweight page.
 
I'm surprised this TOTALLY (not) SAFE FOR WORK, NO JOKESIES site hasn't been mentioned yet

and after that pleasant experience...
