YTMND was where the web peaked, and everything since has been the decline.

Man, I used to upload lots of content on ytmnd. I had a few front page submissions, my most famous one was "Aha! Caught you with Sean Connery!" It was popular for like 2 weeks on the home page. I checked and my profile is no longer active and everything is erased.

Life is but a passing shadow, and time destroys all things.

"The Social Network" comes to mind, Erica Albright to Zuckerberg:
"The Internet's not written in pencil, Mark, it's written in ink."

I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down

And the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns

The ring of fire

The ring of fire
