29 years necropost (yes, that's possible)
« on: April 09, 2014, 12:00:46 am »
Sorry, but I couldn't resist :trollface:

If you thought that 4 years necroposts on Omni were bad, the discussion thread linked above and the last reply were posted over a year before I was even born. O.O


Btw, I knew that those groups existed in the early 90's before internet became mainstream, but I didn't realize that any Internet content from the early 80's would still be up today.

Aw D: (now I wish their search engine returned anything from 81. For me it only worked with 90's results or higher. X.x)

I will send myself a notice in 35 years via that one service to necro this topic.

Actually I should really try to do that.

The funny thing, though, is that if you are lucky and find a video game-related board (I know there is a NES discussion group from the 90's), you could reply to an Atari 2600 topic from 1982 with the game strategy using today's tricks and stuff, and it would almost be a valid necropost :P
Omg DJ you are breaking records. *.*

It will be in May 2021. :P

Please someone explain me why/how Google Groups have some posts predating the Internet? Were those from message boards on primitive forms of network like the Minitel?
