Only 90s Web Developers Remember This

I remember using FrontPage quite a bit too. It had some... interesting quirks when it came to outputting HTML, but it seemed fine enough for me at the time.

Which also reminds me; did anyone actually use the FrontPage Server Extensions they had for it? I remember the tool having a bunch of dynamic features like counters and guestbooks that relied on them being installed, and web hosts sometimes having these extensions listed in their features, but I never saw any sites actually using them.

I remember adding counters to the bottom of my websites in FP, but not sure what technology I was using. Fun times indeed!

I was thinking this exact thing just the other day, as in, within the last week.

It's the nerd's roman empire. I thought about it this morning.
