This Is How We Surfed The Web In 1998: Slowly

Thirteen years ago, a man made a VHS recording of himself exploring that newfangled internet thing. He’s finally gotten around to posting it on YouTube. So what was the internet like back then?

    holy crap, IGN64.com…after seeing that video I remember that interface. Amazing to see what sites are today compared to 10 years ago, thank god for designers! and frames, rofl, everything used to be in scrollable frames.
