    When did you write your first HTML?

    I remember like it was yesterday.

    1996 - March.

        March 1996 as well. I was in grade 8. I signed up for some Geocities space. Back them, they approved the accounts manually. Two weeks later, they told me I was approved. I didn't know HTML, so I printed up a basic tutorial during lunch and read it during math class.

        Built my first site that night, a computer game cheat code site.

          I dont think I've ever written a whole html page by hand.
          I know someone who does everything by hand and her sites look like shit.

            by hand? you mean you actually made a computer out of supplies found at home?

                  I remember it was end of 95 in 8th grade. I did the same thing it was a geocities site, that I started and it was for TI-Calcs. Never went anywhere, then I started another one for C++ programs I written and Visual C++ programs I written and it was on xoom then I had some on webjump I believe that was for FFVIII back in '99 I believe or beginning '00 of my senior year. I still have those sites backed up on a zip disc. I also designed my second I high school's website, that kicked ass, at the time. It was funny to run into the original HTML for the sites tho.

                        Geocities! I think in 1997 (has it been that long ago?)

                        I thought it was so fucking cool that I could get my own page on the web.

                        ...even though it was just a couple lines of text, and a few .gif files.

                                        Sometime in the summer of '94. Got an account at Hurricane and had a customer at my comic book store build me a website. The guy moved and I had to learn how to update it. Once I learned HTML I realized he had done a really shitty job and redid the site myself.

                                        First porn site was Nov. 96

                                                    november of 1994, the doctor i was business administrating for told me 'learn the internet, then teach me' .... so i learned it, then decided time to build a webpage, and read up on how to do it... it was all soooo simple back then.... now if you did it totally by hand it would take you months to do a site...

                                                    thank you dreamweaver

                                                      Some time in '96, I think. I remember getting excited about the new things coming out, like suddenly being able to use colours, and background graphics

                                                        In early 1996 sometime? Frontpage....yuks...I also played around with PhotoShop right around then?

                                                        I remember creating my first link it was so exciting!

                                                        386 with an upgrade to a 486...Now that was power!

                                                              A year ago.
                                                              Funny thing is I still don't know how to type, I have to look at the keyboard and use my index fingers, but I'm fast at doing that. heh

                                                              Does anyone know of any good typing learning software?

                                                                Since 1995 maybe 1994 I been web building and designing.
                                                                First HTML was in 1994 I believe.
                                                                I recall in the tech training school even the teachers scoffed at the idea of the web over taking DTP. Being the outspoken one I went so far as to call one of the instructors Naive and stupid in front of the class and proceeded to tell him exactly its potential.

                                                                My final Multi Media presentation was contrived of Penthouse scans and a presentation about the webs potential with porn.

                                                                Thats 100% of the truth.

                                                                They even humilated me saying I should not have shown my surprise presentation in front of the class without first discussing it with the instructor.

                                                                I said..
