"Ghost Sites was launched in early 2000; it is an image gallery of some 1,250 screens captured from some 900 Web projects that for various reasons 'went dark' during the years 1998 to 2004. Some had a chance to post a self-penned epitaph in the form of a 'farewell screen'; others simply expired and drifted lifelessly, with no visible indications for their demise - often for many months."
"This collection provides a partial, but revealing look at the latter half of the Web's 10 years of existence."
Here's a few the dearly departed that caught my eye:
