The Web back in 1996-1997 Posted in Tech blog on September 16th, 2008 by Pingdom Back in 1996 the Web was starting to gain some serious momentum, but it was still just a few years old. Now in 2008, looking 12 years back into the past of the Web can be a both nostalgic and entertaining experience. To give you some perspective, in 1996… Google.com didn’t exist yet.In January 1996 there were only 100,000 websites, compared to more than 160 million in 2008.The web browser of choice was Netscape Navigator, followed by Microsoft Internet Explorer as a distant second (Microsoft launched IE 3 in 1996).Most people used dial-up Internet connections with mighty speeds ranging from 28.8Kbps to 33.6Kbps. We have used the good old WayBack Machine (a.k.a the Internet Archive) to track down screenshots of what websites looked like back in 1996-97. Yahoo In 1994, “Jerry’s Guide to the World Wide Web” had been renamed to “Yahoo!”. Internet Archive link. Webcrawler Internet Archive link. Altavista Internet Archive link. Ultimate Band List
Unheap - A tidy repository of jQuery plugins Old PC Games - homepage Anonymous Confessions As they say, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas – but what if we could share with full discretion? Everyone of us has his own little secrets and ‘Confessions’, a public art project by american artist Candy Chang, invites people to anonymously share their confessions and see the confessions of people around them in the heart of the Las Vegas strip. Chang lived in Las Vegas for a month and turned her P3 Studio gallery into a contemplative place for people to share their confessions and being fascinated by the secrets others hide inside themselves. Inspired by Post Secret, Shinto shrine prayer walls, and Catholicism, people could write and submit their confessions on wooden plaques in the privacy of confession booths. By the end of the exhibition, over 1500 confessions were displayed on the walls. All images © Candy Chang | Via: My Modern Met
