When the World Went Digital. A sweeping reference work of the websites that paved the pixelated way

Since its debut in 1990, the internet has seen over a billion web pages — but it wasn’t always sleek interfaces. In this visual tour through history, trace the very earliest examples of what we today take for granted, from the first website to use surround sound to the first ‘upload-your-face’ function and YouTube-like page. Complete with year-by-year factsheets, Google insights, and commentary from the creators themselves.

The last three decades have marked an era of technological upheaval as frenetic and groundbreaking as there ever has been. From early desktop computers and mobile phones to virtual reality: the web is now virtually inseparable from all facets of human interaction and daily life. But it wasn’t always funny cat videos and sleek interfaces.

This collection is a visual journey through time, gathering the very earliest examples of what we today take for granted: the first website to use surround sound, the first drag-and-drop navigation, the first page-turn effect, the first website to use seamless video integration, the first viral site, the first parallax website, the first ‘upload-your-face’ website, the first site to incorporate a mobile phone, the first-ever YouTube-like “website”, and many more.

It gathers more than 200 websites, and each comes with quotes and insights from the creators themselves — an invaluable peek into the minds of pioneers who paved the pixelized way for many to follow, including Jonathan Gay (Flash), Gabo Mendoza (Gabocorp), Yugo Nakamura (Yugop), Peter Van Den Wyngaert (NRG.BE), Joshua Davis (PlayStation), and Eric Jordan (2Advanced).

This comprehensive visual history gathers 21 chapters that detail, for every year since 1998, the best websites and examples of hardware used at the time, and explore how user experience, usability, and technological milestones have influenced the development of the internet we use today. Year-by-year factsheets and smart Google insights orient the reader through major developments across such categories as world news headlines, highest-grossing films, new soft and hardware, greatest website traffic, and many more.

For many, this collection will offer a virtual trip down nostalgia lane — but all generations will find a sweeping reference work as well as a celebration of how the earliest creative minds came to define the web, and eventually the world, as we know it.

In this latest addition to the Web Design series, we explore the very best of electronic commerce website design. Now that people are using online shops to buy everything from computers to groceries to clothing, e-commerce has become a major player in the sales market - to such a degree that recent research has estimated that about 10% of US "brick and mortar" sales are even influenced by online shops. From small retailers to online superstores, this guide brings you the most cutting edge e-commerce sites on the web today.

Many of the web's most eye-popping sites are created using Flash, a program which allows for total creative freedom and maximum interactivity. In its early years, Flash was used mostly for artistic and design sites, but more recently large corporations - even Citibank - have turned to Flash.

This guide rounds up the very best and most innovative sites using 100% Flash navigation, including Nike, Adidas, Bacardi, Shrek, Nintendo, Playstation, Ford, and Honda. Also featured are two case studies and an introduction by Rob Ford, the creator of Favorite Website Awards.

Following up on the success of Web Design: Portfolios, this volume features the Internet's best examples of artists, design studios, photographers, designers, and corporations that use Flash to showcase their creations. What once existed only in printed form is increasingly being featured online via dynamic, animated Flash-powered sites. Flashfolios contains a selection of such websites developed exclusively using Flash, demonstrating the sophistication and range of interactive web design today.

100 prime examples from the world's best digital agencies demonstrating the key role interactivity plays on the web today

With its origins tied to the invention of the hyperlink, the web is defined by interaction. In the internet's early days, interaction consisted on clicking links to be taken to different pages. Today, with broadband, flash, video, sound, and online games, this concept has been taken to another level. From news sites and blogs to commercial and public awareness sites, interactivity is the key to the internet experience. This book showcases about 100 examples of work from the world’s best digital agencies—such as Greenpeace, Volkswagen, and Nike—demonstrating the most innovative uses of interactivity on the web today.

We've been trawling the web looking for the most interesting and well-designed portfolios - of designers, photographers, artists, illustrators, and motion graphic pros - to profile the creators working behind the scenes. The focus is not so much the work presented, but the way the portfolios are designed. Presentation, elegance, and style are key, and the individuals and studios featured in this guide represent the best the web has to offer. Entries include screenshots, designers' contacts, tools and content used (HTML, Flash, XML, music, video, etc.), awards received, and cost in hours per website for creation and maintenance.

With designers hailing from 33 countries, from the United States to Croatia to Japan, this selection of portfolios demonstrates how today's best designers are pushing the limits and experimenting with innovative ways of navigation outside of corporate contexts.
