SwineOnline was an online pig raising game that lasted between 1997 and 2002. Archive.org's first capture is in 1998, however, this article from 1997 is the one that helped me find the name of the game. Archive.org's last capture is in 2002, but it could've gone on a little longer, as there's a gap in the dates.
There seems to be two different links to the same game, http://swineonline.tvisions.com/ and http://www.swineonline.com/.
As the game is so old, there's very little information about it online. Google Books shows that a magazine has mentioned it, and so has a book. You can also poke around the archived versions of the websites and find some images, but the gameplay isn't represented there. The PigPack on Tripod has two gifs that seem to match up with my memories of the game, however, I haven't been able to confirm if they actually are from the game.
The following two images are from two_herders as seen here and here.
