If you have any Geocities bookmarks, now would be a good time to find the new location for those pages.
If you cut a string from the page today and paste it into Google as a phrase
Adding &filter=0 to the URL lists all instances.
Of the 7 Geocities pages I had bookmarked, only 1 guy hasn't put up a new page (or at least that's what Google said).

Have you looked at archive.org to see if it is archived there?
Note: The Wayback Machine doesn't store images--only text; it would be good to make backups of graphics if you ever wanted to bring it back to life.

Couldn't care less if it is archived.
I always get a laugh when people start going on about how one should always back up stuff you put up on a website. As if I would ever put files on a site and *not* have them on my computah. (I know you didn't mean it that way, but still.)

Hey, you can *always* pretend that. I often do.
