Imagine, when Kevin Mitnick last logged on to the Internet, there were no blogs — at least not in the faddish fashion they’ve become (Does the original suck.com count as a blog?). And Napster has come an gone.

When Kevin last logged on, there was still an East County Online.

While I’m using the way-back machine, here’s kenlayne.com from 1999. Or how about a dose of original Instapundit. Thank God Mitnick missed this version of the L.A. Times. What were they thinking? He also missed this hideous N.Y. times effort. Will he remember when Yahoo.com was actually a user friendly site? But at least SlashDot hasn’t evolved much.
