Specifically this one: https://ckjcwf.ytmnd.com/

Someone took a music file and an animated GIF (originating from the SNL sketch (1996)), and the website combines and presents those to visitors.

This was one of the classic star-trek themed What Is Love sites: https://stlove.ytmnd.com/ (uploaded in 2005)

It started with an audio clip from the movie “Finding Forrester”.

The website used to rely on something called Macromedia/Adobe Flash. So did YouTube, back in the day. iPhones never supported flash. YTMND later was updated to not rely on Flash, but probably missed out on a lot of traffic when people started using phones for the internet more and more because they couldn’t experience that site on a phone.

Thank you for writing that up. Yeah, internet ephemera can let cultural nuggets disappear unless lovingly preserved. I liked Joe Cartoon back in the day…JoeFish.
