It was called Pathfinder, and it launched in 1994.

It was not sophisticated by today's standards, but it was one of the first real magazine sites on the web. Here are some screenshots.

How old is 'big data' thing? Would you be surprised to see a 'senior big data engineer' title these days?

the title 'senior' doesn't imply the division was sophisticated. If something smells like BS, doesn't mean it can't exist. There is a lot of BS around.

It's a rank indicator, not about experience. Also, fancy job titles are free employee motivation.

The idea that Time Warner already had a sophisticated Web division smells like BS to me. I would accept 1997 or 1998, but not 1995.
