If we were summarizing the history of webpage layout technologies, it would look something like the following.
- 1990 — 1993: Before the Dawn of Civilization. Wandering hunter-gatherer tribes use only the primitive tools available to them: headings, lists, paragraphs.
- 1994 — 1997: The Tabular Empire. The invention of the “sidebar”. Enterprising tribes settle down and begin building magnificently complex structures.
- 1998 — 1999: The Baroque Period. Monuments constructed by the Tabular Empire grow increasingly ornate and unstable. The Browser Wars threaten all civilization. Meanwhile, barbarians lurk out in the steppes, armed with increasingly sophisticated
divweaponry. - 2000 — 2002: The Dark Ages. The economy collapses. Citizens flee into the unprotected wilderness, and many are absorbed into the barbarian tribes and learn their ways. It takes secret black magic to get anything to work at all. Only the greatest shamans are able to build anything in this cold, hostile environment.
- 2003 — 2005: The Renaissance. People begin sharing knowledge. Great new schools of thought begin to arise on how to work around browser quirks.
- 2006 — 2010: The Age of Enlightenment. Systematic investigation of the browser universe. Knowledge is codified. The rise of CSS frameworks.
