Just found a 2005 version of my college's homepage on the Wayback Machine

It was all tables, flashing 'under construction' GIFs, and a guestbook. The current site is a single smooth page that loads in under two seconds. Makes you miss when the web felt more like a bunch of personal projects. Anyone else have a favorite old-school university site?

My buddy got lost for an hour on his own school's 2001 site, just clicking through student webrings.

Those old sites had a weird charm. You could just click forever and find random stuff. It was a different kind of internet.
