yup Robin Nixon but a shoutout would also have to go out to Timon...

Robin Nixon was a great innovator
he had that sex casino thing where you gambled your hits you sent to a toplist and sextab and the program I made a ton of money on SxyMail...damn that program paid amazing amounts of money..33 cents at the time......I was making $100-150 a day off just that program and I was small potatoes

Note the use of the aforementioned question mark in that statement. Classy. Nothing but class.

No. You should say thanks to Larry Flynt. He helped to make the porn biz what it is today. A man with a magazine and the guts to take it to the edge.

When Robin was leaving the biz he said that he and his wife were opening a home for the elderly or something along those lines - made possible by porn. There's a human interest story for some hard working English journalist.

Don't yell too early as you don't get paid. Popups don't convert which is the reason most popup sponsors don't pay.....

Robin also had that program written to scan the whois databases and find 3, 4, and 5 letter domain names that weren't taken. Sexpolosion, one of the very first adult free hosts, was his. Hell, he started playing with internet radio stuff like in 95 or so....way before it was cool :-) He was an innovator and leader. Fun times.

Pop ups are Javascript, and Javascript is Netscape,
(When it was good, before AOL)
so you should be thanking Netscape.

Also the marketing tactics the early adult industry webmasters use, revolutionized the whole industry, they pushed the envelope and the technology, most new technologies and tactis are based on workarounds discovered by them.

Actually was talking to Timon on Oprano about his eternal claim to fame, "consoles".

He actually thought for a second I was pissed at him about it. =o)

I think you right..Pretty sure he owned sexshare and when he sold it he said he would be hanging out. If am not mistaken...

I remember the old chat board he owned (at least I think he owned it ) Robins Place I think or something like that.

I also thought he lived in Palo Alto, CA.
