Tripod was where I used to host my webpages after GeoCities died. They quietly died sometime in the last few years too.

I later upgraded (downgraded) from the blink and marquee tags and animated gifs. I used to use wordart to make my page header graphics and was using PNG to make the backgrounds transparent before png became fashionable (it was all jpg and gif in 2000). And no one seems to remember that PNG was pronounced ping back then and not the individual letters. Either that or Deitel and Nieto lied to me.
