Cameron's World
Not a search tool but a web-art piece: a curated interactive collage assembled from GeoCities graphics and GIFs. You simply visit and scroll, there is no API or search function, so it is listed as a link. Worth a visit for a feel of GeoCities-era visual culture, or as a starting point when exploring what the amateur web of the 1990s looked like.

Чем полезен и как работает
Cameron's World, created by Cameron Askin in 2015, is a web-art piece rather than a search tool: a single long scrollable page assembled from over 700 animated GIFs, text fragments, and hyperlinks excavated from thousands of GeoCities pages. Clicking any linked element opens an archived GeoCities page in a mock browser window called 'Catscape Navigator 2.0.' It is listed here as a link because there is no search function; its value is experiential, giving a visceral sense of what amateur web design looked and felt like in the 1990s.
Что внутри
The collage draws on material from thousands of archived GeoCities pages, weaving together more than 700 interactive elements. It is not itself an archive of a defined corpus, but a curated artistic sample from across the GeoCities universe.
