wow talk about improvment, but every body needs to start out some wear.

Its really interesting to see how companies which are HUGE now started out.

I think the most primitive has got to be eBay in 1997:

Just think, that went from that to a multi-billion $ website in 8 years!

I called the toll free # that GD used to have shown on that page. Now it's used by a phone psychic line.

It's probably Bob Parsons wife reading tarot cards and telling fortunes for domain resellers.

lol, I have been to archive.org many times but never looked at either of the sites.
