tumblr's cute little "90s" theme right now actually makes me reminisce about the good old days of the internet, before conglomeration and piracy killed everything in cold blood (so, not necessarily restricted to the 90s).
all of the ads that you see on websites, covering up 75% of the screen? those didn't exist. cookies didn't exist! your usage history wasn't tracked! sponsored items taking up 75% of search results? those didn't exist. search actually used to give more than 4 decent results; you could find pages and pages of relevant information. remember webcrawler? altavista? lycos? (you're probably too young to actually remember those.) now, we've got the deep web—most of what we use today; sites that can't be indexed because they're behind logins and/or paywalls and have no stable urls (uniform resource locators; website addresses).
the biggest sites were useful. craigslist was useful!; you could make legitimate connections for thrifting, roommates and friends and dating and random hookups (40M seeking _), the poetry of "missed connections." HoTMaiL for e-mail (back when email was hyphenated). photo-sharing on flickr (a little later, picasa before it was bought by google). eBay. these still exist, but were far more prominent.
social media? BBS/IRC channels (bulletin boards and topic-based group chats-that's where you used a/s/l). ICQ, AIM. personal space? if you were tech-saavy, you had your own livejournal, your own wordpress, your own site on geocities or angelfire. guestbooks! later, myspace. tumblr survives as a throwback to all of this.
streaming? well, playlists were simply text lists of songs. you might download files from FTP sites and then play them on winamp (with a custom skin for the UI, of course). when bandwidth allowed for it, realaudio files and radio stations. copyright wasn't an issue, because no one had even asked the question; it was all so new and small. before the pirate bay and bittorrent. before p2p like gnutella, kazaa, limewire. before napster. before youtube.
it wasn't all good, of course. viruses. you weren't sure about sending credit card information online. child porn was out in the open (people would be so bold as to post it on public BBS boards and open FTP sites). copyright did become an issue. there weren't really any "real-time" sources of headline news/information/gossip—RSS weblogs like gawker, jezebel, deadspin and gizmodo peaked a little later. connections were dial-up and slow; you'd have a dedicated phone line or you'd have to make sure no one wanted to make an actual phone call; you'd wait and wait for images to display.
that was all a long time ago. it was so innocent. today's internet just feels predatory.

RAS #659 - Monsters
On Ron’s Amazing Stories, we'll be delving into the fascinating world of monsters. We'll explore their history, origins, and the stories that have been told about them for centuries.
First up, we have a segment called The Other Day I Thought. Ron will share his musings on the truth about monsters.
Next, we'll be reviewing the audiobook American Monsters by Linda Godfrey. This book presents some of the strangest creatures known to reside in the United States. Godfrey has done extensive research on these creatures and has compiled a collection of stories and reports that will leave you both fascinated and horrified.
Following the book review, we'll have a short story by Gregg, who shares a work of fiction he wrote titled The Monster of Gifford National Forest. This story is a gripping tale of a creature that terrorizes his family in the Pacific Northwest.
Our featured story for this episode comes from the OTR series Dark Fantasy and is titled The Sea Phantom. This story is not what you're expecting. It's a chilling tale of a ghost that haunts the depths of the ocean.
Next up, we have Johnny Is True: Can You Tell Folklore from Fakery?. Your challenge is to decide which facts are based on real folklore and which ones are completely made up.
Finally, we'll end the show with an oddity. I asked Google's Gemini to create a monster tale based on my inputs. The results were...well, you'll just have to listen to find out.
Featured Story - The Sea Phantom
Our featured story loosely follows the theme of monsters. Dark Fantasy was a short radio series with tales of weird adventures and the supernatural. Although a short series, the stories are amazing with some being way ahead of their time. Our story today visits monsters in the form of ghosts protecting a treasure that is 100s of years old. It is titled The Sea Phantom and it first aired on January 6, 1942.
Other Stories Include - The Other Day I Thought About Monsters, Review - American Monsters, The Monster of Gifford National Forest, Johnny Is It True - Monsters, and King - A Storybook Monster

Something New - GO FOR LAUNCH
We’ve been on the air now for fifteen years. FIFTEEN YEARS. That alone is something pretty amazing in terms of internet radio stations, which rarely stick around more than three years. We have no pattern to look to when we try new stuff. We’re unique on the planet, and when I say “unique”, I mean it — there are literally no other science fiction themed radio stations anywhere in the world, apart…

The Forbidden Song Haunting the Radio
The theme song from a horror movie turned out to be scarier than the movie itself, after the so-called forbidden song haunted the radio stations that played it.
The theme song from a horror movie turned out to be scarier than the movie itself, after the so-called forbidden song haunted the radio stations that played it. Nights of the Night, perhaps also known as Nights of Entanglements (夜夜���纏) was the theme song for one of Hong Kong’s horror films, and although the movie won’t scare you, the theme song of it will. The movie soundtrack was said to …

Song Lyric Sunday: Ambergris, "Chocolate Pudding"
Christine chose today’s theme, which is “song that mentions a food.” Mine comes with a story… Back when I first bought my stereo (I was 14 and used the money from my graduation from 8th grade), Mom was dating a guy whose mother worked at WCFL in Chicago. He told his mom about me, and she said she might be able to get some records for me. Radio stations in those days had a music library built with…

8000 Facebook Fans!!
Our 10 year anniversary is coming up this May, and I’m personally pretty stoked about it. We’re the world’s only full time science fiction and fantasy themed radio station in the world, but that wasn’t always true. And, periodically it hasn’t been true in our station’s history. Sometimes people try to start their own (and claim that they’re the world’s first and/or only, because they haven’t done…

Biden, Trump, and World issues, fervor or fever?
