  • sundancekid503, on 10/15/2007, -3/+597You forgot the 90's omnipresent "Under Construction" sign.
  • raitchison, on 10/22/2007, -6/+466VERY well done, I remember those days well.
  • nextag82, on 10/10/2007, -12/+439Comment system was prolly better back then
  • pjs1840, on 10/10/2007, -1/+265Dugg for the dancing baby having the most diggs.
  • kamikazecow, on 10/24/2007, -1/+232I miss the animated gif section :(

    Earliest Recording of digg.
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+208lol @ LPBs with ISDN lines. I remember in middle school, dreaming in about having a 128kbit/s line to play my team fortree classic with. And yea, I was a damn nerd and dreamt about fast internet connections so what
  • Wailord, on 10/10/2007, -2/+147Looks a lot more flashy than Digg 1.0...
  • NikoKun, on 10/24/2007, -1/+138Anyone want to make a Greasemonkey script to make Digg look like this? XD just for kicks?
  • weareglass, on 10/24/2007, -1/+127The Under Construction sign was to the 90s what the beta moniker is to the 00's
  • addiggt, on 07/06/2009, -3/+129Notice some of the jokes in the usernames, they're hilarious. Oh and for the people who still haven't realized that this is a joke, Digg launched in 2004.
  • Gryffydd, on 10/10/2007, -1/+124All hail !! < table>< /table>
  • raitchison, on 10/24/2007, -4/+124No Digg did not exist back then though I'd guess this isn't a bad guess of what it would have looked like if it did.

    HTML 3.2 represent! :)
  • mattcampbell, on 10/10/2007, -1/+114Dugg for linking directly to the Coral Cache page.
  • overeasyeggs, on 10/10/2007, -1/+104took forever to load... definitely the 90's, if only my phone rang and i got kicked off the internet.
  • danieldrehmer, on 10/10/2007, -5/+87They forgot to post about those AMAZING VRML 3D experiences!
  • KyleMistry, on 10/10/2007, -0/+79Haha! RealVideo, 200MHz, Dancing Baby...man, what a time that was.

    'Course, this can't be expressed in just a picture. Gotta have the MIDI background music too. :}
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -18/+97its "i.e." not "a.k.a".
  • zaklampert, on 10/10/2007, -3/+75lol realvideo
  • shadwolf, on 10/10/2007, -2/+71What, no frames?
  • Ellipson, on 10/10/2007, -6/+75Pretty much awesome. Dancing Baby FTW. Same with the "I Will Survive" alien thing.
  • chrisreynolds, on 10/10/2007, -6/+73dugg down for the first half of your comment.
  • alexw, on 10/10/2007, -2/+60Ahh, the old digg. Back when it wasn't riddled with pictures and top 10 lists. It actually had some tech news back then.
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+59awesome, one of the user names is zeroc001. HACK THE PLANET!!!
  • SnuKs, on 10/10/2007, -7/+63Hahah Animated gifs instead of video.
  • chance6, on 10/10/2007, -4/+60All I want to know is. . . What happened to the GIF section?!? Can we bring it back? :)
  • po43292, on 10/10/2007, -5/+59Quake screen capped at 1337 Diggs.
  • raitchison, on 10/10/2007, -8/+61Thank you Conan the Gramarrian ;)
  • TyreeJackson, on 10/10/2007, -0/+52586 diggs for the Intel Pentium 200Mhz MMX
  • aixelsyD, on 10/10/2007, -2/+51actually it's Conan the Grammarian :)
  • UtopiaInTheSky, on 10/10/2007, -3/+48I laughed the most at the 200 MHz one. "Just in time for Quake and Duke 3D!"
  • COLDshiver, on 10/10/2007, -0/+45"Holy *****! It's a dancin 3d baby!"

  • drlha, on 10/10/2007, -3/+42Yes, thanks for the heads up.
  • matagin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+39Need more animated fire gifs like on all the Diablo pages!
  • crazybrit, on 10/10/2007, -3/+41So you're not counting http://web.archive.org/web/19981111184324/http://www.digg.com/ ?
  • reed311, on 10/10/2007, -0/+37It would have been complete with a reference to Duke Nukem Forever.
  • LegOfLamb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+37Man, websites looked so bad in the 90's. Whoever made that pic nailed the general layout and color scheme of that period. Very funny.
  • wagesj45, on 10/10/2007, -2/+38This is probably the most awesome thing I have ever seen. One of these days almost all layouts will be done with tables and horizontal separators, just like the old days.
  • morphie, on 10/10/2007, -1/+36hey, craigslist
  • elementfire, on 10/10/2007, -2/+36Hmm, they're upgrading. They should be up in 30 minutes. I'll wait.
  • SopMan99, on 10/10/2007, -3/+36I still have my Pentium 200 MMX machine... it's at my parent's house. They use it for email, etc...


  • AlpineStars777, on 10/10/2007, -3/+36it loaded about as fast as the internet did then also
  • stevea1210, on 10/10/2007, -7/+38The Quake axe story has 1337 diggs.
  • Takteek, on 10/10/2007, -1/+31Did it really look like that or did archive.org break the style sheet?
  • lukee, on 10/10/2007, -0/+29It's "it's" not "its".
  • Frost9999, on 10/10/2007, -0/+29I get the feeling some people think this is a real screenshot from 1996.
  • anjinash, on 10/10/2007, -0/+29Choosy perverts choose GIF!
  • anjinash, on 10/10/2007, -0/+27Jesus I feel old. In middle school I was dreaming of a 2400 baud modem so I could login to the 'leet' BBS's.
  • bjs3171, on 10/10/2007, -21/+46aaaaaaaaah hahhaha! dancing baby. ugachaka.

    i hope the clinton story dude feels a little silly today. blowjob vs attempt to become dictator. hmmm.
  • SteveMax, on 10/10/2007, -2/+26Actually, Microsoft did promise a "Windows 97". It was released late, so it was called "98".
