Yesterday I was crawling through some old backups I found on 3½-inch FDD disks (for the kiddies: those hard plastic things about 3½-inch wide used to store 1.44MB of data on them) and for as far I could see I made my first website on September 15th, 1995. This means that I can now celebrate my 13th year as a web developer.
I remember surfing to the Playboy website to see the first photos on the web. Yes, they were one of the first websites to publish full color photos on their site. You had to be very patient because it took about a minute for just on lousy 60 by 80 pixels image, but hey, girls in lingerie are the best and I was 17 years old at that time ;)
My first web project was a sample I wrote for school to show my classmates that you could store data on another computer and look it up in class. I created some plain html files with a few lines from a course book and everyone liked it. From that time on I knew where my future path would lead me.
