This doesn't get said enough. The widescreen desktop Internet (even at 800 x 600) was far more creative and fun than the modern transactional app world. The 2008-10 era iOS apps being a rare exception, but that too was snuffed out due to changing App Store guidelines that punished silly apps and favoured the recurring revenue cargo cult.
