I have a printed book of "good" website design examples from the late 90's. It is an amazing time capsule.

I also really wish there was an archive of AOL's homepages... My first website is lost to the digital abyss...

Oh man, you just reminded me I have this book somewhere:

Web Design Annual 1999: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/4766110781

it is amazing

edit: oh crap, it's available on archive.org: https://archive.org/details/webdesignannual100webd

What's the book called?

I'll have to look when I get home. It blows my mind because there was nothing stopping me from just... loading the websites.... I had the internet. But I was a kid/teenager and used the book for inspiration.
