This interactive graphic really takes me back to the early Netscape days; a time when internet speeds were a blazing 56k and streaming video was one frame a second… if you where lucky. The scrolling timeline allows you to take a trip through history, looking at the progression and style of each popular browser, from Mosaic to Chrome, along with a history of the technology and innovation that made it all possible. We’ve come a long way, and it will be fascinating to look back in another 18 years.

Known in some circles as the most amazing man in the universe, he once saved an entire family of muskrats from a sinking, fire engulfed steamboat while recovering from two broken arms relating to a botched no-chute wingsuit landing in North Korea. When not impressing people with his humbling humility, he can be found freelance writing, finding shiny objects on the internet, enjoying the company of much-appreciated friends and living out his nomadic nature. He is Managing Editor of Visual News. Follow his movements on Twitter:
