Maybe you are looking at the wrong one ? It loads instantly. I do not have to zoom to read the text. No node.js, cdn and other curses of "modern" web. The only annoying thing is that the guy went to great lenghts to get the audio only to convert it later to mp3. I guess there is no hope. ( it could have been worse - webm).
This website, as well as the one in the thread's URL, are exactly in the way as I learned the WWW was when I first started using it.
It fits its theme ... vinyl
Don't joke, we'll probably see web 4.0 distributed on vinyl soon enough. Just gotta get the assets down to less than 100mb.
Is there a Vinyl-ROM format?
It reminds my of the Hyperphysics [1] website, which I believe borrows from Apple's Hypercard (pre World World Web) information tech!
