Vernacular Web 2
Those who enjoyed my Geocities 96 CSS zen Garden “design” will probably be interested in this essay Vernacular Web 2 by Olia Lialina:
To me, what defines the history of Web is not just the launch dates of new browsers or services, not just the dot-com bubbles appearing or bursting, but also the appearance of a blinking yellow button that said “New!” or the sudden mass extinction of starry wallpapers.
This made me all nostalgic, so I looked through the wayback machine and found my home page from 1998. Javascript rollovers - awww, bless!
