@mollydotcom Graphically heavy splash home-pages. They were completely useless after they took forever to load on dial-up. #Bad90sWeb

@mollydotcom I tried not to do a lot of JS back then. It was very spotty.

@mollydotcom Ignoring CSS altogether! Forcing the HTML to be responsible for STYLE as well as CONTENT.

@mollydotcom Tiled animated GIF backgrounds in one frame of a frameset, with animated torch icons in the navigation frame.

@mollydotcom I would say me. I have tried to forget the atrocities I committed. Like old relationships, you try to forget the bad ones. :|
