--- title: Time travel anamolies date: "2002-03-19T12:00:00Z" categories: - links wp_id: 1397 description: I explore how a Metafilter link crashed a Geocities site documenting time travel anomalies in films. It illustrates the downside of bandwidth limits and the 'hug of death' common on early web hosting services like Yahoo. keywords: [time travel, geocities, metafilter, bandwidth, film anomalies, yahoo] --- Here's a good reason for me not to advertise my website. Here's a site on [time travel anamolies](http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:P0G0dSp3T-UC:www.geocities.com/Area51/Rampart/6040/) in films, which is [not accessible](http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Rampart/6040/), thanks to Yahoo's restrictions on data transfer. One listing on Metafilter probably killed the site. But then, the question probably is, is that a reason to hate Yahoo?
