<h3 id="my-website-story">My Website Story</h3>
|
|
<p>I'm an "early Millennial". My first websites were homepages with rainbow dividers. In 1995, when I was 12, my dad bought me a book called <a href="https://openlibrary.org/books/OL822310M/Internet_and_World_Wide_Web_simplified">Internet and World Wide Web, Simplified</a>. That's how I learned how the internet worked, and that I should pronounce GIF "like the peanut butter".</p>
|
|
<p>My first websites were free homepages. The first was on a website called <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/19970628183245/http://www.tool-box.com/">tool-box </a>which didn't last long and I've never heard anyone else mention. I think it only existed in 1996/97. I moved on to other free hosts like Angelfire, and moved from using the basic form page editors to learning basic html. But the real magic happened after I saw the movie Titanic in January of 1998. I loved it so much, I made a Titanic website called Titanic Crazy. My first fansite! </p>
|
|
<p>Working on my Titanic website is what really led to my learning more about making websites and how the internet worked. Soon I was making websites for all of my friends. I even got to redesign the website for my high school theatre department. </p>

|
<p>For my sixteenth birthday, I asked for a domain name. I got my first domain name, <strong>shannonkay.com</strong>, in 1999 as a present for my 16th birthday. </p>
