Thoughts on having a Forteana Fridays segment? Each Friday I share an interesting article from my Fortean Times collection, re-formatted for the hypertext era.

Chat would it be too ambitious to upload hundreds of issues of BYTE magazine to the library?

Its vampire disclosure. Vampires are real and Jeff Lynne (of the Electric Light Orchestra) is one of them! (funny schizopost based on the fact the guy looks like he never ages)

Do you guys know why 88x31 is the specific size that neocities website buttons are?

Sure, it started on Geocities, but everyone knows that bit of lore. Websites on Geocities had to link back to the main page with an 88x31 button, and it became a trend to modify its appearance while keeping the size the same. After its virality it got codified in the IAB's (at the time "Internet Advertising Bureau", now "Interactive Advertising Bureau") December 1996 "PROPOSAL FOR VOLUNTARY MODEL BANNER SIZES"

Good try @divinicide but i got this history down to a T

The IAB called the 88x31 standard the "Micro Button" and later the "Micro Bar". The banner ad sized became standardised as the IAB gained more and more legitimacy. There was in fact a need for this. Prior to it there were over 250 different ad banner sizes around the web, and users often times could not recognise what was and what was not an ad!

This is the first iteration of the standard: https://web.archive.org/web/19980211033307/http://www.iab.net/news/content/library/decbanner.html

After that, they had some expansions in 2001 introducing additional sizes called Interactive Marketing Units: https://www.iab.com/news/internet-advertising-bureau-iab-issues-voluntary-guidelines-new-interactive-marketing-units/

Is there a certain page that leads you to a broken 404 page? I know it used to have issues when pages are in a folder other than the main one. I'll have a look around to see if I can fix it

Maybe it was firefox policy :/ I tried with https://capstasher.yorniq.xyz/lmao and it returned an image so it works !
