Zombo.com
Zombo.com is a humorous website created on October 10, 1999. The site consists solely of a single Macromedia Flash animation of the website's title and seven circles of alternating colours. The animation's voice-over repeatedly welcomes the viewer to the web site and claims that the viewer can do anything they want without any limitations at Zombo.com. However, when the introduction is finished, instead of a link to the main zombo.com website (which does not exist), it simply provides a link to the zombo.com newsletter for a few seconds and then goes back to the start. The dot is not pronounced by the animation, which refers to the site as "Zombocom". The site has become well known as an Internet phenomenon. The site is believed by some to be a parody of much of the advertising of the dot-com boom, as it seems to hype up an interesting service but does not offer one. Though it continues to exist after the end of that era, it has not yet changed its animation.
