That's not true. HTML validators have been around since July '94

Let me go find the first one real quick.....

Very well, T.I.L. Thanks for posting the actual link. Were you around W3 back then? Smiley

Yup. I've been online since FIDONet, well before WWW.

i miss my lynx browser
Me too, in fact I'm going to install it now, for old time's sake. Hell I'm going to get ircii as well just for giggles.

WOW! Lynx is actually still fully working, and installed without any trouble on a mac with xcode and macports. Thanks for the reminder, I will be using this a lot, it's lightning fast and better than adblocker for getting rid of annoying crap Smiley



Well, it's fast and clean, but that ad is still following me. Wink

And if you can read this, posting via lynx works too.


oh wow.. I have to install it again

If I'm not mistaken there are even still fully functional gopher servers around.

And some add-ons to go with the servers http://gopher.floodgap.com/overbite/

I'm a bit torn here.

The 1.0 stateless model fits better with the browser navigation model. Wikipedia (for the consumer) is the power app for this.

Web 2.0 allows complex applications to run completely in the browser inside one webpage. Then you don't need to be concerned with problems of storing state information in sessions on the server alongside other users and all the bugs and security problems that can come with it. Most information can be kept client-side, just like in the old age of desktop apps.

Define "Web 2.0". You cannot hate something you can't define.

OP did that too:
a cluttered css monster with lots of ajax.

this. (I dub thee: Japanese Tentacle Animated GIF Eye Rape) Or this. (Warning: May cause seizures, sudden explosive bowel movements, temporary blindness, permanent blindness, urges to throw computer out of nearest window, more seizures, stomach cramps, coma, death, reincarnation then another painful death, apocalyptic tendencies) I understand this site isn't Web 2.0, but I'm too lazy to find a truly terrible Web 2.0 site.


LOL I think they are more web 0.2 than 2.0

The thing that pisses me off the most about web2.0 sites is when they don't allow "open in new tab". I use that all the time.

If I had a time machine I'd go back in time and stop the two biggest mistakes in web browsers: cookies and the damn back button. Its a WEB, not a line.

I don't hate Web 2.0, I hate those who abuse it until it looks like the Vegas strip of programming. When people understand that they can have a smooth, fully interactive site without having a modal window fly up and across every five seconds and a dancing advertisement next to the text, Web 2.0 is very welcoming. Otherwise you end up with something like this. (I dub thee: Japanese Tentacle Animated GIF Eye Rape) Or this. (Warning: May cause seizures, sudden explosive bowel movements, temporary blindness, permanent blindness, urges to throw computer out of nearest window, more seizures, stomach cramps, coma, death, reincarnation then another painful death, apocalyptic tendencies) I understand this site isn't Web 2.0, but I'm too lazy to find a truly terrible Web 2.0 site.
