This week's look back at #InternetHistory is again about 1994, and what I think was the world's first multimedia website: the Internet Underground Music Archive (IUMA). I tried my best to get some screenshots of IUMA from 1994, even though none appear to exist! I used somewhat blurry images from old YouTube videos and computer magazines. If anyone happens to have, or know of, a 1994 screenshot of IUMA, do let me know and I'll add it to the post.
