What is GeoCities all about?
Since you've gotten this far, you've already discovered the power of the Web and its incredible potential for changing the way we work, live and play. One of the main reasons for this is that the Web promotes the free flowing exchange of ideas and information among all citizens on the Internet. The Web has flourished because technology has provided us with a way to link people and their ideas together in a way that was never possible before.

We aspire to be positive contributors to this new culture. We're committed to developing innovative ways to foster the spirit of community that is so vital to the future success of the Internet and the World Wide Web.

Our philosophy has always been that locations on the Internet become easier to relate to when they are rich with content and closely identified with an actual idea or location. In support of this belief and in keeping with the culture of the Internet, we've developed a free Personal Home Page program.

Why would GeoCities provide this program?
We believe that everybody has a right to their own Personal Home Page in cyberspace. We've developed a unique Personal Home Page Editor for use in creating your own Personal Home Page. We've created residential neighborhoods behind each of our Geographic Home Pages to accommodate thousands of Personal Home Pages. We've committed sufficient disk space and bandwidth to support hundreds of neighborhoods, and we are looking for individuals who are ready to sign-up and create their own Personal Home Page.
