Sadly, social media widgets have been undoing a lot of forward progress to this end. "Modern" websites are littered with tiny little iframes that suck in massive DOMs from external sources. We don't have the navigation issues but they look ugly, they're completely inflexible (often with developers resorting to magic number px-based layouts to get them looking right) and they're horribly inefficient. And then there are the privacy implications! With Twitter's upcoming API changes, we're going to be seeing even more of them: it used to be possible for web developers with taste to make their own (decent looking) tweet stream widgets. Soon enough that'll be unreasonably difficult, so they'll be forced to use Twitter's ugly (and inflexible) iframe thing. So, yeah, not feeling the satisfying blast of nostalgia here :(
