The site was founded by Paul Phillips in 1994. Steve Berlin took over in 1995 and started to update more regularly. There were many imitators, and it spawned its own Yahoo category. Marc Andreessen once called it "One of the best sites on the Web". It helped disseminate many early minor internet memes and phenomenon. It was a list of links to web pages the writers deemed egregiously useless, with humorous descriptions. In time it grew to a directory with links archived by category. The Useless Website was an example of early web humour. I’ve had a few ideas, potentially incorporating some different pugs in different rugs, or even branching out into different breeds of dog, but for now, I am loyal to the pug in a rug! I wouldn’t mind having some kind of tool to increase your count legitimately, but perhaps that energy is better spent on something new.The useless website No we are not at all in a partnership with the useless website wiki So I guess watch this space!Īny plans for the future of pug in a rug?

If I were to say anything is missing, I’d say it’s frogs or turtles. There’s about animals that can really inspire people’s weird creativity as well!
