I've always found it quite fascinating to see these 'trends' appear, and wondered which ones have been before. I think I would have described something similar as you did up to geocity, and before that I wouldn't know, but it's nice to get a feeling from that time from how you describe it. Would be nice to see this visualised some time.
Before this growing style, white "clean" pages with minimal content was in style and is still in favor. Before then, extremely detailed "photoshopped" pages with a bunch of flash was in style (and menus, menus, menus). Before then, geocity and frontpage style, with blinking animations and sound. Before then, Spreadsheet style and link tables.
I wonder what this style should be called. I do like the name "flow style".
