Your Favorite Sites, Geocities Style

Some wonderful internet soul has invented a site that allows you to plug in the URL of any site you like and view what it would look like had it been built on everyone’s favorite 90′s web platform, Geocities. Their tagline is, “Make any site look like it was made by a 13-year-old in 1996!” The result is a hilarious combination of key tone 90′s music (“Breakfast at Tiffany’s” by Deep Blue Something!), sparkly animated GIFs and hideous background images. Check out some screencaps below.

Here’s NYU Local’s version:
