My buddy and former EarthLink underling Dave Coustan (brilliantly known as Extraface out in the world) scored himself a hell of a find at a thrift store this weekend.
The Yahoo Web Speak game no doubt made many a girl LOL around the turn of the century, and I hear Microsoft and Yahoo executives are actually communicating through the game’s IM cards during merger negotiations.
Somewhere around here, I still have my new-in-box Monopoly – The Dot Com Edition, but Yahoo Web Speak blows that away in terms of awesome Pre-Bubble 1.0 board games. And for those who think we’re again in an Internet Bubble – you’re wrong! I just checked around, and neither Scene It? – The YouTube Edition or Mad Libs – The Twitter Edition are in production – yet.
