Well, absent graphics you couldn't really do much styling. CSS wasn't widely available until 1997 or so.
I maintained one of those corporate sites…here's a library of the IBM homepages for the five years I was the webmaster: https://epcostello.net/library/ibmcom/ https://epcostello.net/library/ibmcom/
- aimor 4y agoThanks for sharing your writeup, I enjoyed reading that. It's nice you had printouts of the pages, old sites just don't render correctly on archive.org. I also think v6 was something special, that one really came together and has a magazine type feel. It's frustrating that the early web turned out to be so ephemeral. I was too young to think about websites not being around forever, and I have a lot of vague memories of interesting sites now lost.
- epc 4y agoYeah, I wish I’d known about archive.org when I was in a position to help them capture the sites I worked on (ibm.com, the Deep Blue chess sites, etc.).
