I grew up in a dysfunctional household that was chaotic and always in disarray. I had to escape. For me, I escaped into the world of computers. I always had a fascination with computers and technology. I loved taking things apart, and figuring how to put things back together. I had nearly a cubic yard of Legos that I had accumulated.
In junior high school I discovered BBSs, and in high school I discovered I was able to find exploits in certain systems that would gain me access to the internet. Back then it was quite different, unix consoles, telnet, and ftp were the tools of the trade. Then NCSA Mosaic improved the accessibility world-wide-web in 1993. I remember thinking, what’s the big deal, it’s just like gopher with some pictures thrown in. Flash forward ten years, and I am the webmaster for a music magazine put out by Tower Records.
