from Wikipedia:
Yahoo! GeoCities is a Web hosting service. GeoCities was originally founded by David Bohnett and John Rezner in late 1994 as Beverly Hills Internet (BHI), and by 1999 GeoCities was the third-most visited Web site on the World Wide Web. In its original form, site users selected a "city" in which to place their Web pages. The "cities" were metonymously named after real cities or regions according to their content—for example, computer-related sites were placed in "SiliconValley" and those dealing with entertainment were assigned to "Hollywood"—hence the name of the site. Shortly after its acquisition by Yahoo!, this practice was abandoned in favor of using the Yahoo! member names in the URLs.
In April 2009, approximately ten years after Yahoo! bought GeoCities, the company announced that it would shut down the United States GeoCities service on October 26, 2009. There were at least 38 million user-built pages on GeoCities before it was shut down.

But wait... there's MORE.....
NASA, wouldn't you just know it, also has audio from the MA-6 Flight... which you can find on their:
This is also long-form audio, in somewhat "bite sized" chunks - Java and RealAudio formats.
Also included on the above NASA linked page are further links to other MA-6 related pages including transcripts of all the in-flight audio.
Back in 1962 the actual mission audio was played back to the radio & tv stations by tape delay... and there was no NASA-TV or an audio equivalent that one could tune into to hear live mission audio.
And yes, people were excited enough in 1962 to get up at 4AM (on the West Coast) to follow the early space flights... on the radio, no less! Today, if you want to have a front row seat to the Human Spaceflight adventure, just get hooked into NASA-TV and enjoy the Final Frontier!
ps: NASA TV is running a lot of Project Mercury archive stuff today (20 Feb 2007)
