So I went to the book store and was told I had not been using the computer long enough to make a web-page; but finally I got the concept across; a book of basic html code and only one such book was there; and went to work. Well you need an editor. Think Guy suggested Ghomer HTML editor. I used Ghomer and would still be using it, but they quit making it soon after they started. The whole trick to-it was a preview button, shows the page as you make it. Write some code press-preview, change, fix, add - subtract, press-preview. I liked the Netscape browser. The Microsoft screen was flat, no-depth, dead and dull. I wouldn't use it. But then it would turn-out that Microsoft didn't recognize the code I wrote that was fine on Netscape. They always liked to do it their way or no way. So would guess Guy got me a URL, and I had web-site.
The first thing I did was make the html pages, for a lexicon of my concepts. What I realized immediately was that for the understanding of any individual terms in one concept, they could be linked as click the mouse to a definition in the lexicon. The links became intergral to the site method of use. One of my first reviews - a guy told me he went to a concept clicked a link; clicked a another link there; and on he went, never getting back to the original premise. Oh well I thought.
This was all circa 1997. At the same time I was doing personals ads. I didn't write ads. I only answered them. I spent a year at it and I can't remember the site I used. What I was doing was trying to learn how to write the ad that would get me the woman I was looking for.
With the HTML code book, I was able to construct web pages realativly easily, accept as related to Microsoft. In those days there were people whose mission it was to visit every existing website. And it might have been possible nearly, unlike today when there may be a billion.
Found you had to pick a font. Then all the fonts. I in my anlalysis period
alway uses black or blue ink and never pencil and never erase. My system
was make a statement and assume it to be true. Then try to prove it false.
Build a house and try to knock it down. Not a house as an archetects plan
as maybe this and maybe that and nothing really in concrete form to test
in the weather. I picked Arial font as clear, easy to read no .........
Eventually went to Times New Roman because ...............
