Cory Doctorow pointed out recently that having pages be ugly and half-broken is an immune system against creeping corporate influence. Marketing people are incapable of making ugly pages without collapsing into fits, so if every page on your system is ugly and homemade, they won’t be able to fit in there, and they’ll have a harder time turning it all into shit.

The Internet really did feel more genuine back then when it was ugly and half broken.
It was less sterile and uniform
Every site was unique
Communities felt more real
There I go, whistfully looking to the past again
