#Protoweb

2025-08-10

Back in March 2025, I did a 90s-style BBS splash screen for protoweb.org! Today, it made its public debut at @why2025camp's Demoscene Village hosted by @FieldFX, winning 1st at the Graphics Compo! All aboard!

In this piece of 16-color IBM VGA ANSI art, the Protoweb logo, consisting of the name in capital letters preceded by a colon and two forward slashes, is rendered as a bubbly graffiti tag over a splash of dark magenta with red highlights. Beneath this, a ship from the Age of Sail sails through outer space, with waves cresting in the same colors as the logo, towards the planet Earth, with Africa, Europe and Asia in view.

It would be kinda cool if there was a Mastodon web client for the vintage web (like #Protoweb ). Maybe someone should make that πŸ‘€

The #ProtoWeb project is just awesome. As great as #TheOldNet is, this project takes that concept and puts it into a proper, dedicated browser (you can even simulate a 56k modem's speeds) where you can effectively relive the early days of the web.

The shareware here even appears to still be downloadable!

Definitely look into it if you're feeling nostalgic for the old web.

Heeeeeeck yeah. The Raspberry Pi Pico-W transplant into the #BlueSCSI was a success. Loading web sites is pretty dang slow, but it tops out at like 60Kb/sec, not much faster than a 56K modem, not that those existed when this #Macintosh IIci was contemporary. I think the disk driver in the image I used is super slow. I remember seeing a warning in the log file. So going to fiddle with it in the near future, but for now just so glad this is working. Such a neat machine.

Edit: Oh and I forgot to tag @ActionRetro and @mac84tv for all their hard work with Frog Find and such oh and thanks to the #ProtoWeb project too!

Protoweb now works on BeOS 5 as I'm using Minefield Browser as a example.

I've been playing around with NEXTStep with the Previous emulator! Really fun. Emulating a NextStation Nitro Color. After installing NEXTStep, I stumbled upon a large archive of software and been exploring it. Here's OmniWeb displaying the iNode Gateway.

A screenshot of the OmniWeb web browser running on NEXTStep 3.3 with the iNode Gateway web page open.

I registered my first domain name 25 years ago today on a Macintosh IIci (or IIcx), so I’m going to continue working on the IIci tonight in the hopes of getting it online with Protoweb, live starting at 8PM EST! youtube.com/live/e0aagvICSxQ #protoweb #retrocomputing

Let's pretend we live in the 90s and have 56k modems again.
