Quick: what did Apple’s homepage feature on May 17, 2001? How about November 29, 2003? Come on, son: these are the kinds of burning questions that can mean the difference between honor and disgrace down at your local Pub Trivia night. Fortunately, website Thought Different is there to help you remember the key moments in Apple’s Internet presence history.
Thought Different features a collection of Apple’s homepages from July 1997 all the way up to the present day. They’ve even rigged up a spiffy Cover Flow interface for browsing back and forth in time. Click on a page and it’ll display a fullsize version, along with a little blurb about the significance of that particular page.
It may not be quite as productive as spending all day browsing Wikipedia, but you never know when an encyclopedic knowledge of Apple’s homepages might come in handy.
