The site, in 2007
A former OCLC site that gathered what WorldCat knew about a person or other identity onto one page.
It launched in 2007 with pages for 20 million identities, mostly authors and the people books are about. OCLC announced in 2022 that WorldCat Entities would replace it, and said in March 2023 that it was no longer supported.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
