1995- often called the “Olden Days” of the public Internet – the average computer connected online via a telephone line, reaching download speeds of merely 56 Kbps. We would wait patiently (often for several minutes) while images loaded, pages displayed, and long paragraphs of text rendered font sizes and color combinations to challenge our optical nerve endings.
And we didn’t have many choices. For example, very few comparison shopping opportunities were available online. For many, the idea of having a Web-based shopping cart to accept product orders from a Web site was as far into the future of possibilities as owning a flying car.
Because of the manual effort and knowledge base required to create a Web site back then, business owners with forward-thinking minds but limited budgets would negotiate to pay a few hundred dollars for a single basic Web page. the Web, Web sites with multiple pages were restricted to the technical or even a mini-page-just to have some type of presence on having a presence on the Web of any kind was a luxury and more of status companies who could employ programming staff and designers. In short, symbol than anything. Today, of course, the game has changed considerably.
