*Dial-Up Noises*
Welcome to The New Old Web, a website dedicated to exploring how we can retrieve the best aspects of the old web while not allowing nostalgia to obscure its failings. Can we look forward to a better future for the web by also looking back? Can we learn from history, so that we aren't doomed to repeat it? How did we get where we are today?
