Evolution of Web Design 1990-2019

For curiosity, I did an experiment using Chrome version 1.0 which was launched in 2008 to open today's website and see if it can handle them. Here is the result -> https://youtu.be/H-1GNIVGJKw

My opinion is that the website’s from the earlier 2000’s where THE COOLEST but then cane the depressive part… FLASH DIED 🙁

Internet is super slow earlier than 2009..The Internet only become usefull 2011 Up to present

youtube 2005

2004-2010 era best

Half Life 2 looked wayyyy ahead of its time considering 2004

It evolved up until 2013 or 2014, then it regressed

Tite sa noo hahhaahha

Interesting and very informative… I'm 15 and currently learning web development and I'm just lucky how I was born when all of the internet is fully evolved

To me, the web design is actually going downhill. I'd rather read a notepad text, where everything is clean and organized than spend 10 minutes of my life to find the proper page of power point file. My point is, web pages often tend to look unnecessarily complicated, the info is hidden and they bring stupid amount of images and take longer to process. It's especially like that, for example when you visit an official site of any car brand. I mean how many times you put something like: "page X +contact" into your search bar, because you couldn't find that basic information on the site itself?

The comfy 2010-2013 web design, i really miss it

Just imagine if the interent and cell phones were never created. What would the world like look? I've always wondered that.

I would like to actually combine best of both worlds. Simplicity and snappiness of 90s website (which is intended for 56kbps speed), and interactivity of modern website.

I remember the old days when it was frowned upon to have more than one image on your page since it would take forever to load on Dial-Up. Now it's preferred to have tons of images.

Only 30 years since the invention of internet so much has changed I wonder what will happen internet in next 30 years

I'm learning web dev and this was very informative.

5:47 — W3Schools… yikes!

Thanks for this! Great to have an overview of the history.

Thanks, my fave web history video on Youtube so far. I appreciate when people get straight to the content of a presentation vs. lots of irrelevant personal anecdotes. Also appreciate that you took the time to show all the older website designs 🙂

Hey!!!!Thanks for sharing.

The modern internet sucks, and I am not just saying that out of nostalgia. Everything is so unbelievably boring, just a white or black background with circular pictures, cramped up to use as much space as possible. All personalisation has been reduced to simply a circular picture and a small banner image.

My dad was actually friends with the guy who made Mosaic when he was in college.

I love classic internet interfaces…

Im 39 and I was on the Internet in the 90s when it looked like a cartoon we thought it was so hip and badass….I feel old lol.
