Personal
What you see today is a culmination of twelve years of work. I began my personal site way back in middle school, right in the middle of the web explosion, when Netscape Navigator waged war against Microsoft Internet Explorer, in the days of GeoCities, Tripod, and 2 MB ad-sponsored free hosting services. As the times changed and an ever-increasing collection of new web technologies became popular, I slowly adopted Javascript, then bits and pieces of CSS, and then stopped. I wanted to keep my site simple. But an increasing richness of user experience demands the use of more powerful and complex tools. In recent years, I learned PHP and MySQL, and decided that my site could greatly benefit from those two technologies. Nevertheless, I have continued to develop under my philosophy of pushing the envelope of existing resources while preserving coding elegance.
