Web Design: A Look Back

Serge Keller has compiled a series of screenshots of early websites. How far have we come?
Alta Vista, which used to be the search engine, 1996.
Alta Vista in 1996 wasn’t a million miles away from Google today. Visually speaking, that is. Apple in 1997, however, shows how much things have changed:
Apple, 1997, during its “beleaguered” phase.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen this. I think it interesting the lack of change for “harder” information gleaning, à la Alta Vista & Google. Only recently has Google been modifying its look. Information services is clearly a very conservative field.
