The late writer Chris Rubin, right, eating dan dan noodles at Chung KingLet's have a moment of silence for Geocities, Yahoo's free website service I used to create my first website before I got into blogging. Eating Chinese was a brief chronicle of friends who gathered to try SGV restaurants from various regions of China. Most of the restaurants have changed name and ownership by now, like Green Village and Shiang Garden. Thank goodness Blogger came along to make things easier. If you have content lurking somewhere on Geocities, figure out how to move it or archive it before it goes away this summer.

Good times Pat! 2003: you were a pioneer. Nice to see a picture of Chris; brought tears to my eyes.
I would like to go check out that homemade Hunan Chinese noodle place that Linda Burum wrote about this week in LA Times. Those green tea noodles sounded yummy! How about reviving the group 5/10 for Mother's Day?
i love this. you're such a trailblazer! =)
Oh goodness, I remember my first web page at Geocities back in '97...
