Patented Screenshots
--
I came across quite a few screenshots included in patent application for early(ish) websites/technologies. I love being able to see the old web environment, reskinned IE, stacks of toolbars, random applications open in the Windows taskbar. I also like very much the xerox aesthetics and general bizarreness. Here are few, in no particular order:
