The site, in 1996
A one-day photo project showing how the internet was changing people's lives, edited and published on the web as the pictures arrived.
Led by photographer Rick Smolan on 8 February 1996, it brought together 1,000 photographers, editors and designers, billed as the largest one-day online event to date. The site drew over 4 million hits in 24 hours.
In 1996: Ran for 24 hours on 8 February, with NetObjects software turning editors' picks into finished pages minutes after they were chosen.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
