Remember when...?



Google is celebrating its 10th birthday. In honor of this, they've brought back their oldest available index. Take a look back at Google in January 2001.

Better yet, search for some vile things in the East Village that arrived after January 2001...and its as if those things never existed! (Search for Pinkberry and see what you find...) Oh, we can pretend. I've just started playing around with this...there goes the rest of the day....

    I've searched for iPod, yunnie, Eminent Domain, Pastis, Chocolates by The Bald Man, and gentrification -- interesting results, especially the last one--only two results. Man, those were the days. Good times. Good times.

    I searched "the East Village is a name to benefit greedy real estate bastards" and "Re-unite the Lower East Side!"
