		<description>Some other things I&#039;m hoping someone will do:

1. Archiving references to Geocities that might be needed for preservation and reconstruction projects, before they disappear too.

I didn&#039;t remember my original neighborhood address. Luckily I found it in my archives. Then when I googled it, I found it in a guest book that I had signed.

There might be information here and there about the contents of Geocities pages, that could be used to reconstruct pages that weren&#039;t preserved. One way to find that information is to Google all the possible neighborhood URLs.

2. Recapturing the spirit of Geocities.

There is more to the Geocities heritage than Web pages. Part of what Geocities means to me is the in the spirit of it, including the organization of the neighborhoods, the community leaders and the work they did, the community centers and the community activities. I would like to see those reconstructed or at least represented somehow, possibly with the help of former community leaders.

3. I would like to see a site about where the community leaders are now and what they are doing.

4. I would like to see a site about people&#039;s memories of Geocities and what it meant to them, and/or still means to them, for its own sake and for the ideas it might inspire about what to preserve and reconstruct, and how.</description>
