I love the old youtube so simple.

why don’t you just post “Check out this website http://www.archive.org/” instead of going on it, stealing images, and not giving them any credit? i mean, unless these are your personal screenshots…. psh

The old Buzzfeed looked better!

Well Reddit and Amazon haven’t changed.

Amazon really hasn’t changed that much and I remember when HRO was like that, I miss it :(

miss old HRO.

Oh how I love the past.

Oh. Here for Britney~

Mashable didn’t look like that. Archive.org probably just didn’t have the CSS archived, so it’s showing you the bare page without styles. Same reason why most of the images are broken in those screenshots.

Hiring this man was an excellent choice, Buzzfeed.

Intended effect: “Look how primitive these sites used to be!” Actual effect: “Look how clean and simple these sites used to be!” Web design seems to be going the same direction as cable news (and, ultimately, local news as well): let’s fill every corner of the screen with random crap.

Ah, I remember the heady old days when websites weren’t choked with endless crap scripts that made them crawl on even the most competent machines. I’m looking at you, Buzzfeed. Yes, that’s the stink-eye I’m giving you.

WTF happened to Buzzfeed? I want the old Buzzfeed back!

A lot of these looked a hell of a lot better then.

aaah, before buzzfeed was inundated with celebrity gossip.

They look the same as ever to people who use AdBlock.

This shiny new layout will look pretty sill eventually.

Yahoo hit home quite hard. It was a lot harder to find porn.

Buzzfeed looked so much cleaner and easy to navigate back then!
