Title: IGN turns 10 tomorrow.
Post by: Tupin on January 11, 2008, 09:06:43 PM
Wow, ten years on the internet.

That's really old for a site. Especially on the internet.

Just think, when IGN was founded, AOL was the most popular way to get online, Dial Up was the only way most people got on, Clinton was in office, and the World Trade Centers were still standing. :(

But hey, look, they opened a Retro section. :)

Old sites always become the highly successful ones. Lots of sites like IGN started in the 90s.

You're retarded if you don't think Myspace is successful. It's one of the most recognized and popular sites ever to exist.

I know what he meant, sure, but it was stupid and he slipped up by using "successful" as his only adjective in his lame-ass joke.

I'm not saying all, durr. Lots of successful sites are a couple years old.

It was easier to get your website noticied back in the 90s, when there was much less webpages around the net. If Maddox started his page a few years ago, people would see it as just another blog.

Funny enough, out of the ten years IGN has been around, I've probably never visited the site more than 10 times. Coincidence? YOU decide.
