Amen! It was digitally rustic (comparatively speaking) and each site was oozing personality.

Not saying I don't like the standardization and trends of today -- just that everyone's general inexperience with the web led to a lot of really weird and fun quirks at the time.

But the modern web has better content. There's a lot more to the web than just the HTML.

The signal:noise of the modern web has decreased, on average.

And quality content is increasingly centralized & standardized.
