I’m old and it’s definitely not the old web. I consider the old web to be when PNGs were sliced with Fireworks and laid out in tables.
2009-2014 is Web 2.0, back when people still thought social media was a good idea.
- b3ing 2mo ago2003-2009ish was Web 2.0, part of it was CSS/web standards and AJAX and blogging becoming more mainstream
- pluc 2mo agoHa, people who didn't live it will have a hard time believing AJAX was as strong a buzzword as AI is today. Crazy to think asynchronous requests were peak innovation at the time
- pluc 2mo agoOld web was 88x31 buttons, 468x60 banners and tables
- toast0 2mo ago> I consider the old web to be when PNGs were sliced with Fireworks and laid out in tables. PNGs? We had (mostly static) GIFs and we liked them.
- mattkevan 2mo agoHa yeah you're right. It wasn't a proper homepage if it didn't have an animated traffic cone 'Under construction' gif.
- darkwater 2mo agoPNGs are new, not old.
