The Times Are A Changing (More or Less)

The Guardian Art and Design put together a grid of everyday design where you can watch nearly 60 years in the change. Design items like corn flakes or cloths for flight attendants seem to go back and forth in time, picking up an idea there, changing it, tweaking it, putting some shiny Photoshop effect or differently colored hat on there and here we go.

The only constant is change.

Starting from the 50s to the 60s to the 70s… You get the idea, don’t you?

Hey folks;
Was wäre wenn, ich die Zeit zurückdrehen könnte?… Mancher Blödsinn wäre nicht passiert… Ich wäre in Cali – noch mal… Ja das ist natürlich kompletter B.S. (Bulls…) Doch, die virtuelle Welt der unbegrenzten Möglichkeiten, aka Internet, zeigt wieder einmal, was es so drauf hat. 2bprecise, es hat alle Websiten der vergangen Jahren auf einem langsamen Server gespeichert. Wo? www.archive.org! Ist doch ziemlich witzig zu wissen, wie miserabel das Webdesignen vor ca 10 Jahren war. In den Kommentaren könnt ihr ja eure Lieblingswebreisedestinationen verlautbaren… Google.com; Cnn.com (Besonders nach 9/11); …
