Frames and patterned background... And to think this was once cutting edge <sigh>

On a phone, they make a really poor reading experience.

Exactly! I read it on the phone and I enjoyed the nostalgic look of the page.

I was even thinking, this is what the web used to be.

If instead of this it was written on another Medium blog or as a bunch of tweets, it wouldn’t have had the same impact that it does for me. It is the way that it should be, for the story it is telling.
