YTMND was a website that played a very important role in Internet history and meme culture, bridging the gap between web 1.0 and web 2.0. Although its sound plus image plus text format was very simple, the creative ways people could make more complex ytmnd sites was endless. Its creator, Max Goldberg, was also an early advocate of online free speech, often pushing back against companies that would try to get content removed from the site, citing fair use because most people online knew what that meant. He even got into some early Internet drama with Saved by the Bell's Dustin Diamond, who was not a fan of a parody website he made that led to the announcement of YTMND.

    It's gone the way of Aint It Cool (aintitcool.com), Harry Knowles focused on trying to get into the movie business instead of his website and neglected it, then years later he got accused of being a sexual pervert and the site is a little dead now nowhere near the traffic it got in the very early 2000s.

    YTMND was a big part of my life. I found it way back in 2004, and it led me down the path of content creation, video editing and animation. I even helped with the edits on the parody you briefly featured here: 1:33 It was inevitable YTMND would fade into obscurity as the internet evolved, but it's a shame just how much of its history and impact has been forgotten. I appreciate your playlist covering key events and acknowledging how our community was a force for creativity and freedom on the internet in that era.

    NEDM jokes aside, I actually think YTMND could make a comeback the way it started: As a site focused on protecting... Well, I guess you could say, the free speech of memes. With the growing climate of censorship, deplatforming and moral busybodies, we need a site with the sort of spirit a lot of those early internet websites had behind them more than ever before. The catch 22 is it would require clever engineers and cutting edge technology to make it work. A decentralized, block chain based YTMND style site with whatever technology one can drum up to get around state censorship firewalls that hosts a wide variety of media formats, old and new, would be incredibly relevant right now. It obviously doesn't have to *be* called YTMND, though I think it would send a powerful message if it was.

    Looks like there might still be life for YTMND. Checked the webpage today just to cry and saw that now there is a page saying they are trying to restore the site from an archive and are going to start using a Patreon to help finance the site. From the Patreon - "YTMND deserves to be preserved for future generations. The site has fallen into disrepair and needs a good amount of programming and system administration. Help us modernize the site, starting with a fully functional HTML5 player. YTMND does not have any advertising so hosting is paid for out-of pocket. This Patreon will help cover those costs and help support effort to modernize secure the site."

    Whang, thank you so much for these web history videos, you have no idea how this one in particular resonates with me, sometimes I feel like I'm the only person that remembers YTMND, it's great to see I'm not alone, YTMND was some of the most fun I've ever had on the internet, possibly THE most fun. It was just so incredible while it lasted, it's such a shame it didn't last, but I feel a big hindrance was just how technical minded you had to be to make the really fancy YTMNDs. I think another issue and the one that really made me stop visiting regularly was that some users would make the audio extremely headphone breaking loud in order to troll people, it got to the point where you couldn't safely browse the site without turning the audio almost all the way down, it just got be too much of hassle to worry about. I'd say though that 2009 was the last year the site was decently healthy, but it was a sharp decline from there.
