Hey everyone, what are some of your favorite Mac OS 9-compatible websites still online today?
I'm aware of the more notable ones like this site, the garden, oldavista, oldnet, protoweb, etc., but sometimes they also contain links to a number of sites that can be dead, incompatible, etc. I'd like to start a new list for people to browse!
To start, some of my favorites acessible from my old Macs include ericexperiment.com (fun personal site with lots of resources), starmen.net (I've used their walkthroughs while playing MOTHER 1 on my old Mac!) and maybe even... cough cough jojo2k.com ... cough ...
What are some of your favorites?
-
Sabrina-Online.com was one of the first webcomics I ever read and still works to this day, even with Netscape 4.7.
-
Go to the Settings section of the search engine http://wiby.me and set it to filter HTTPS - e.g., for a search it will return ONLY websites being served up by straight HTTP. So eminently viewable by your favorite OS 9 browser...

I would like to know how you got onto the internet at all, as i cannot seem to access it anymore with 9.2.2

Great webcomic, one I'm fond of as well and have also read on Mac OS 9! Great characters, art and a lot of late 90s to early 2000s computer tech.
For another, significantly more chaotic and surreal webcomic, the artistic masterpiece that is Pokey the Penguin works too: http://www.yellow5.com/pokey
You can also still browse the RPG Classics shrines via the archived site: http://archive.rpgclassics.com/
Iirc, if you're willing to install Flash, the old Homestar Runner archive also works, but it's been a while since I've tried it, so your mileage may vary. http://old.homestarrunner.com

Not sure if its fully compatible with OS 9 outside of maybe Classila but this website has been around for 20+ years and it has a TON of old 6th-8th gen nintendo trailers in DivX format

found it via Wiby

also found this via wiby Web 1.0 doesn't follow W3 standards so the site specs haven't been updated in close to 3 decades and it has a forum
