Back in the computer dark ages, when 286 and 386 computers roamed the planet, I used to dial into BBSs. I got inspired, and later I started my own BBS. Even later, I saw an online program for creating web sites. So I started creating a web site for my BBS. Nothing fancy. Just a basic presentation of information about my BBS.

About this time, I decided that I wanted to organize my music collection. Since I had started a web site for the BBS, I decided to do a web site for my music collection.

Later, when I started co-hosting the Computers By Candlelight portion of the We Hours radio show on KPFK, I decided we needed a web site. So, I started work on that. Being curious about how linking works, I created links from the radio show web site, to my music and my BBS web sites. A lot of people visited KPFK's web site. Because of those links, I started getting visitors to my other web sites.

A couple of years later, KPFK discontinued the We Hours radio show. However, by this time, I was getting a fair amount of traffic on my other web sites, so I decided to continue working on them.

When it came time to reprint my business cards, I put web master on them. After all, I had created and updated my own web site. Which got people asking about my web sites. As I showed my web sites, I made changes to them (based on the reactions I got). I also got valuable feedback from some of the web visitors to my sites.

Most web surfers prefer a more graphical style than I tend to develop on my own. One of the people who had given me useful feedback on my web site, and was also doing web sites, offered to help with graphics. So, with the help of Offworld Press, I am now able to offer an informative site, that is more interesting to view, without being distracting.
