I made my very first web page when I was 12, from a book about HTML I got at the public library.

I built it in Netscape Navigator on Windows 95 because that's what the phone company sent us on a CD. It had a lime background , frames , and used the default font .

Later on, I got a CD of gifs and upgraded the background to a starfield .

Nobody ever saw it except my mom, because I didn't know how to put things online. She was happy for me, but also wanted me to play outside more.

Web design today is generally less exciting.
