Tobi’s Timemachine

Students of the summer semester project Standarts and Revolutions had to came up with the projects that would show that they understand and respect the laws of webdesign. Tobias Leingruber went further and made a work that is full of love to WWW and its pioneers.

He writes:

In the 90′s People started creating webpages about their hobbies and dogs on geocities or other free webspace providers. As many people didn’t have much content to post on their “homepages”, they just put an “under construction” sign on it to show that the website was not finished yet, but maybe in a couple days.
Tobi’s Timemachine Firefox Add-on uses the syntax of any webpage, and changes it into a beautiful Web 1.0 amateur page. This is my tribute to all the pioneers of the web.”
