Using a different search engine—especially if you haven’t used anything
but Google since you dropped AltaVista in 1999—is roughly
like picking up the entire Web in an enormous shoebox, and then shaking it all
around vigorously. Lots of unusual things come up, including a bunch of
nostalgia: a blogger writes about
his ViBES experience
[fixed link; see also this followup] (ViBES was a MUSH I built in 1994 as a high
school hangout); some truly old perl code
of mine; Chris Mulligan’s archaeology of MBHS sysop
lore, 1993-2002
(including the thought-lost binx
credits
and goober credits
& /etc/issue archive).
