I remember this from way back in the 00's as part of the Web 2.0/semantic web era. I was a big fan of Dan Cederholm's design work (https://simplebits.com https://simplebits.com - he did the design for the site).
I do like the principle of trying to use semantic html, but I don't think that things like this ever got the kind of mass adoption that would give them staying power. Still a nice nostalgia trip to see it here.
- kk3 1y agoHah I just had to chime in here, blast from the past for me as well! Dan Cederholm was my guiding light when I was learning CSS and semantic HTML. I used to View Source and study the code behind SimpleBits :) Agree with the mass adoption part. Back then I was so hopeful for what the web might become... The days before social media blowing up.
