In the beginning there was traffic. It was easy to move by in 1993. Publish a web site and the entire web earth would-be cognize just about it and visit inside
a month. In fact in the days of past times one could visit every site on the Web. I know. I've done it several times.
And the offline saw that traffic was nice and they came - by the millions. Thenceforth
publish a web site and you would-be be lucky to have any hits different than your own development hits inside
a month. And the folk knew that traffic was good, yet they had little, or none. Challenge spawns opportunity. Thence directories and search engines arose and the folk rejoiced for the millions could now be found. And so the 1st iteration of the Web passed and the found and the lost were as one - eventually indexed.
Commerce and competition arose, as it always makes with every technological advance, business models decried the wild west confusion of the web and mandated order and profit. And the traffic remained nice yet the folk lamented because the ecumenical nature of traffic was replaced by the bought and the paid for. And the major brands rejoiced for the traffic was nice and it could be bought, tamed and redirected. Yet, throughout it all the pioneers and the bold and the diligent and the brave remained steadfast, for they had become digital in their outlook and on was the state of the Web. The traffic increased, tho'
not for all. Traffic is the watercourse
that always flows. And so the second iteration of the Web passed and the lost were further still and the found paid with money or arduous labor.
And the third iteration dawned and Google became the word bandied throughout the land. The clouds thickened for many a and cleared for some, a new term arose in the digital land, tho'
long a staple in the of the analog. The term is brand and the nature of it wish continue with the next episode.
