In my last post, I forgot to mention that it was a subscription to Prodigy
that ran out, 
and that is what enticed me to start my own BBS.  I was heaper for me to
purchase the 
software than it was to renew the Prodigy subscription.

My wife used to post in the 'Cross Stitch' area, so I waned to create a
network dedicated 
to the niche of hobbies.  So, HobbyNet seemed to be a good choice.

I learned how to code in HTML by reading the page source of other websites,
entering it 
into Notepad, then making changes t see the results.

Then, Microsoft came up with Front Page to make editing pages easier.  Then,
Microsoft 
Expressions Web 4, which is what I use to this day.

I started a business doing web design and web hosting and have done designs
for over 
200 companies, including a couple in Dubai.

I love computers and everything all the joy that comes from them.  I learned
early on 
that if I wanted to visit anther country all I had to do is type in a domain
in a browser 
and I was there in seconds.

Any other computer love stories out there?
