exploring web design ~ prompts and some links

hey! i got a bunch of old internet books from the library and one is structured to be used in a class kind of setting, so it has EXERCISES which i think could be pretty fun and good for thinking & warming up, so i stuck them on a webpage!
i also was interested to see how many of the websites the book mentions as having good designs are still up, because the book is about 20 years old now so those are on the page too. sadly some of the sites they screenshotted in the book don’t have internet archive backups (or the archived versions are broken in some way)… still, interesting!

here you go!

you should post if you do any of the exercises!!

Must be so much fun to flick through 20 year old web design books! Love the exercises!

Okay, this is really cool! Even the bits that are “outdated” are still useful pieces of history. I may have to try some of these exercises if I ever have the free time to do so.
