@@nobbyfirefly57basically the design. There’s this thing you use with HTML called CSS. CSS affects the design so like the color the font size what images can be shown hence, the name Cascading Style Sheet. It isn’t that complicated imo. It’s fun to play around with considering I’m dogwater at Java script.
@@ExodiumTM It's impressive how you're "pretty sure" while simultaneously know nothing about how that works. The cookie stores a session key generated ad-hoc and stored by the server and it will have an expiry date. Non cross-site cookies are inaccessible by any other website besides the ones that generated it. This key can be rendered invalid remotely if needed and it decays once you log out. The only way you can get hacked with it is if you already have RAT (Remote Access Trojan - a kind of virus) in your pc or literally share the key yourself somehow. A RAT will have full control on the target machine so that's obvious it can steal everything on it. Avoiding viruses is trivial nowadays.
@@ExodiumTMdepends on the app developer. If it has cookies, with many not so complex security measures like JWT, CORS, HTTPS, HSTS, and ip address check it's 100% safe However beware of browser password auto fill. It isn't encrypted and stored plaintext in a directory anyone can access
I still read like crazy but the mess you have to wade through is insane nowadays. I remember a teacher saying there's no such thing as a dumb question, but that was stated before web 2.0.
@13.ghaniziyadsagiansyah66 Mostly nostalgia paired with rose colored glasses tbh. I'm probably happier (on scale) now than I've ever been, but I like to look back on the good things from back when.
An actual web site from the 1980s That's pretty cool, considering the web and HTML1 wasn't invented until 1991. Whoever made those pages needs to be employed as a futurist now.
Using tables was the second strategy I learned. The first was using a 1-pixel transparent GIF and resizing it so, for example, you could indent text or insert space between sections.
1987 is when I first went online and I haven’t stopped since! My first log-in was with a group called “ECHO” which stands for East Coast Hang Out; based in New York City, originating at NY University computer studies dept (don’t recall exactly). After that I joined Compuserve and then AOL. It’s been quite a ride!
@@kasrakh86 I've actually considered reviving it myself. It's still up technically, but hasn't been used in over a decade. I'm taking some pretty intense college classes right now, but will probably pick it back up in the summer. We have a very big family with a lot of history, and I think it would be nice to preserve that somewhere.
It's crazy to think none of this existed when I was born and now there are adults with children of their own who are younger than some of these websites.
So April 30, 1993, was when the "Internet" became available to the general public. So how can you have business "websites" before then? Anything that came before would have been BBS-related and not true sites as related to the WWW.
Hey @codingwithlewis maybe just try doing the most basic of research to understand the actual history of the web, plus the difference between a domain name and a website.
I appreciate this. I find it increasingly hard to find older sites, their all being bought. People need to be more original cuz I'm about tired of the same thing from now on..
This make me wonder if all the random free websites I made back in the late 90s are still active. Had page counters and flash games and what not. Guess there is no way of knowing anymore 😢
The web wasn't invented until 1989, so no website can exist from before that. It wasn't open to the public until 1991, so anything commercial before that likely is BS. And all of that was text only. First graphical web browser was NCSA Mosaic and I'm pretty sure that was 1994. Anything with an image can't be before that.
Only some bunch of my fellas will understand the hype that we feel when we read ALOT of a web and then see a blue word that means A LINK to another page XD
The web didn't exist in the 1980s. CERN's website was the first. Don't make the mistake of confusing "web" with "internet". There were internet services before the web.
All websites were originally mobile responsive, as basic HTML used all dynamic layouts. Then came fixed with tables, and that's when we lost responsivity, until it returned in the late 2000s and beyond.
Would love to see a deeper dive on these "ancient" websites. I mean, I do know about the tech and its history, but would be nice to have a comprehensive video material to refer for my younger colleagues who missed this content when learning web development.
DNS and the first domain names existed since 1985. The website literally says they only set up a web server because people expect that every active domain has a website, they only seem to use it for email otherwise. Its last-modified date is December 2014, likely from its last server migration.
I wish you mentioned Newgrounds from 1995! In all fairness it doesn’t look anything like it did back then, but it sticks from all of these by having a decently large user base.
Man I remember that feeling as a kid going online around 96-97 in baltic states. It was something you needed to prepare for each time. And once online you hurry, because phone line was busy and money was ticking, What a time it was.
Remember the commercials that used to air in the 90s?? 'Can you read a book from a library on the other side of the world? You will.' I'm having some flashbacks with this short! 😮😮
Ah yes, Sporks. The greatest invention in human history, right after the flamethrower, which has been proven to be the greatest invention right after the AMC Gremlin.
Afaik, before the end of 1991 there was no html and no browsers in the internet, thus, any claim for oldest websites from the 1980s can't possibly be true, right?
The internet goes back farther in time than the World Wide Web which works on, but is a separate thing from the internet, the Web was invented in '93 and yes, the cern site is in fact the oldest website. Internet. World Wide Web. These are not synonyms.
the Space Jam website doesn't count anymore as it's no longer at its original host nor is it even the original code it was updated for modern browsers and now sits in a subdomain of the Space Jam 2 website
Really thought you would have included the Heavens Gate website in this. Came to be in the early 90’s and is still there today, even though all of its members committed suicide.
Shout out to Media Multimedia who brought graphics and sound to a text only Internet world via monthly CDs. But the first sites were university text threads.
