I've had a love for computers for as long as I can remember.
One of my earliest memories is lying on the dining room floor with my mother's laptop playing Toontown Online. While that game is long gone, I can still picture it as if it isn't.
I remember being drawn to how alive the internet felt. Being a child of the early 2000's, I was fascinated by the early web: bright colors, low resolution graphics, strange personal sites, and pages that felt like they were made by real people by hand.
As I got older, that feeling and inspiration stayed with me. I developed a deep curiosity about the internet and the culture that grew around it. I wasn't just interested in what computers could do, but how they could make people feel.
The older web was messy and unkept, but it felt human. Every site had a person behind it who wanted to share a part of themselves. This site is my version of that.
