The internet in 1986 and 1996 was nothing like 2006. 2006 is on the other side of the event horizon of "Don't be evil."

- ethbr1 3mo agoBy 2006, you already had Google, Amazon, and Facebook outpacing their competition. Apple was riding iPod success and just about to launch the iPhone. Imho, that's well into the re-centralization of the internet and tech landscape. Rewind another 10 years, and I'd call 1996 wild. That's before XMLHttpRequest/AJAX and when a cat could create as impressive of a website as any corporation.
- giancarlostoro 3mo agoI guess it depends on what you mean by wild...
