Crazy wide site at http://www.streetsensation.co.uk/kensing/hs_n3.htm. I once thought that width and height would be used by websites. wouldn’t it be cool to have an infinitely wide and high site? I think I read something about on-line comics that prompted that, McCloud rings a bell?? But wide and high sites mean one giant download of content. But with javascript and some google-maps like image replacement/content replacement/Ajax trickery, you can get that infinite feel to a site.
So it is just so crazy retro to see a site that really is wide, and really does have a long horizontal scrollbar.
I am apparently spending the day strolling the internet. Reminds me of the super old days when the Internet was new and all back in 1995, and I was reading Suck daily and everybody’s website consisted of a short diary that was maybe updated daily, and links to cool stuff.
Back when Wired was compelling.
