Jason Kottke links to some examples of the early (circa 1994) web design from both Apple
and Microsoft (still online, by the way)
Quite an evolution we went through! Here are some interesting bits to notice:
- “If your browser doesn’t support images” on the Microsoft one.
- Painted grey background, even though that was a default browser background color back in a day.
- Microsoft server is NOT running on IIS. Yet. But HTTPS is mentioned already!
- I still, in 2015, know multiple so called “web developers” who wouldn’t be able to implement these designs in any sensible time frame (within a day). How rusty are you image maps?
The good old days…
