Piero Scaruffi’s Web Site
A legendary site where content (heavily music reviews) trumps design. According to the about page, Scaruffi became one of the very first websites, and possibly the first website ever to carry the name of its owner (for lack of imagination). So www.scaruffi.com has existed in one form or another since the 1980s. The domain itself...
Lambsoft Productions
Set up as a little website design business. Gotta love the 15 second Flash intro and HTML 3.2 created with Microsoft FrontPage Express 2.0. Very clean design though!
TravelASSIST Magazine
The web s first online travel magazine. They were adding a travel-only search engine but it never quite happened. Lots of old articles and images from 1996 though ads have been added since.
Technical Advisors
A web hosting provider who still has a site in HTML 4.0. They are careful to state they do not sell tacos. Great domain though!
McSpotlight
The biggest, loudest, most red, most read Anti-McDonald s extravaganza the world has ever seen.
CNN O.J. Simpson Main Page
For months, this was the place to stay abreast of the latest in the O.J. Simpson trial. You can find all sorts of facts and low resolution images though the QuickTime videos are no longer around.
Pacific Grand Prix
A very old site, this site is optimized for Netscape 1.1 and is almost as simple as it gets. There s a header image, menu buttons, and a few links for results and photos. Interestingly, there s a banner from website sponsor HP (very early to see such a thing).
Lost World – InGen
A clever marketing ploy by Universal, this site is meant to bolster interest in the movie The Lost World. You can also search through John Hammond s office.
You’ve Got Mail
A gem of a site that utilized Flash and HTML 3.2. Get $5 back when you buy on VHS.
