Today marks the 10 year anniversary of the birth of http://www.smirk.com. On July 26, 1996, my very first web page went live. It looked something like this: (PDF File) I was pretty proud of that page… It had a graphic and everything! It’s interesting how my color scheme has remained consistent over all these years. And even my contact info is the same!
I registered smirk.com in June of 1996, but it took me a month to build a site that I felt was ready for the world to see. I still remember staying up all night for weeks tweaking those pages over and over using “simpletext” and Photoshop 3.0! Originally, all of my sites were under the http://www.smirk.com domain and it wasn’t until 1998 that I registered http://www.thejimshow.com and split all my stuff into separate sites.
Here’s to TEN YEARS!!! My, how the world has changed…
