The last three decades have marked an era of technological upheaval
as frenetic and groundbreaking as there ever has been. From early
desktop computers and mobile phones to virtual reality: the web is
now virtually inseparable from all facets of human interaction and
daily life. But it wasn't always funny cat videos and sleek
interfaces. This collection is a visual journey through time,
gathering the very earliest examples of what we today take for
granted: the first website to use surround sound, the first
drag-and-drop navigation, the first page-turn effect, the first
website to use seamless video integration, the first viral site,
the first parallax website, the first 'upload-your-face' website,
the first site to incorporate a mobile phone, the first ever
YouTube-like "website", and many more. It gathers more than 200
websites, and each comes with quotes and insights from the creators
themselves-an invaluable peek into the minds of pioneers who paved
the pixelized way for many to follow, including Jonathan Gay
(Flash), Gabo Mendoza (Gabocorp), Yugo Nakamura (Yugop), Peter Van
Den Wyngaert (NRG.BE), Joshua Davis (Praystation), and Eric Jordan
(2Advanced). This comprehensive visual history gathers 21 chapters
that detail, for every year since 1998, the best websites and
examples of hardware used at the time, and explore how user
experience, usability, and technological milestones have influenced
the development of the internet we use today. Year-by-year
factsheets and smart Google insights orient the reader through
major developments across such categories as world news headlines,
highest grossing films, new soft and hardware, greatest website
traffic, and many more. For many, this collection will offer a
virtual trip down nostalgia lane-but all generations will find a
sweeping reference work as well as a celebration of how the
earliest creative minds came to define the web, and eventually the
world, as we know it.
