Anyone remember the original MercuryServer?

[cosmo]

This was back in late 2002 I do believe where it was just a small chat room, white background that would have your head throbbing for hours after use, and to the side the only downloads there were was the latest digweed Kiss FM and maybe a live set from Danny Howells that would be posted for just a few days. And now it has moved up to the mammoth of the website that it is today.

Respect goes out to all the people who made it what it is today!!

some history

mercuryserver.com started out as a $50 Linux server that provided study notes and lecture presentations for students undergoing Information Systems and Computer Science Degrees. Later mercuryserver provided thousands of application code for such languages as VB, ASP, C++, JAVA, and PHP. Now inspired by developers and programmers that write most of their code while pumping digweed, they are dedicating drive space and bandwidth for the new legacy of mercuryserver. The KISS FM 100 - John Digweed MercuryServer ERA was born A.D. May 3, 2002.

Re: Anyone remember the original MercuryServer?

I think the one I am talking about is before that one, even. This had a small chat room on the web page, no messageboards or anything. It was a white page, with just a few links – the moderators would take down the sets and put new ones every few days. I remember asking one of the moderators to put the danny howells one back up after they had taken it down, they said “sorry cosmo, once they are gone they are gone for good”. Lol. Had a small image of digweeds face I believe, with two primary links to digweeds most recent kiss mix, as well as the guest mix. Maybe one or two recent sets by howells, sasha, digweed or someone like ali from deep dish. I know it was before the version posted above because I remember it transitioning to that one later on.

I def remember encryption from the start.

I can't picture the site, but I definitely remember someone saying that about the sets that were posted.
