Got to laugh.
I have never used a email address that was not a alias. Since the 1st email online mail site Rocketmail.com 27 years ago on 1997
Left AOL and never looked back. Evan a alias with that.
Rocketmail was bought to make Yahoo mail 2013.
My Geocites email was converted to Yahoo after buying it and running Geocites into the ground.
Wow a lot of email addresses torched because of being bought out.
The down fall of ICQ which there was a article yesterday closing. They were bought out by Russians in 2010 so stopped using my 5 aliases but everyone I knew was dead or moved on. Had a very coveted ICQ # that was always had attempts to steal. Was a 4 digit number.
Excite, Altavista, they all went poof with Yahoo, Google, MS being and offering Hotmail.
Sorta a time line of the best for their time of sites and email.
