I just got rocked by the Wayback Machine:
This is my world
via Scripting News: Megnut - “Web people can tell you the first site they ever saw, they can tell you the moment they knew: This, This Is It, I Will Do This.”
And I am
I was sitting in the studio at Ethicom in early 1994, and I had gotten Ethicom signed up with InfiNet. I used Mosaic, on a Mac. Unlike Meg, perhaps, I don’t remember the first web page I went to, but I knew then that, as Meg says, “I Will Do This”. It was another year and a half before I get my wish, and I dragged several designers kicking and screaming into the world of the 216 palette, HTML, etc. We beta-tested the first versions of GoLive, we used FreeBSD, and my world was rocked.
The World Leader Pretend
It’s still rocking today.
(That, by the way, is from a post in 2000 on my editthispage site.)
