Back in the 90's, when I was learning how to build websites, there was a site that I used to refer to all the time called WebMonkey. Well, A few years ago it shut down. I guess Wired decided it wasn't making any money, or bringing in traffic or something, it was probably related to their acquisition by Condé Naste. Who knows why. And, ever since, it's been a sad sad place, the Internet.

Anyway. I was reading an account of how two high school dropouts hacked Comcast's DNS and took down their websites for 6 hours when I saw a shiny new banner pimping the return of WebMonkey. So, out of curiosity, I went and checked it out, and sure enough, the primate has returned.

Here's hoping that WebMonkey return to prominence as a font of website creation knowledge. Eep Eep!
