I never had a computer until high-school, we were doing Pascal initially in computer class and I got bored, got a copy of Delphi and started building free desktop applications that was useful to other people. It wasn't till my final year of high-school that we got dial-up internet and a new world emerged for me. Varsity, I was studying Engineering Science (Computer Science + Applied Maths + Electronic Entineering), first year, I was selling computers to help cover the cost of my studies, only in my second year did I discover that I could personally build websites and only another year later did I find some time to setup a PHP forum, restyle it and created my first web page. Varsity actually gave me internet access and would spend almost all my time on it since it was completely new to me.
My first ever web page was this one back in 2006, it never had much content on it: web.archive.org/web/20061005144731/http://www.myc… As you can see, it's still all tables and inline colours, CSS was still the new kid on the block and browsers was just starting to support to.
It's only in 2007 that I started building useful stuff on the web: web.archive.org/web/20070317152233/http://www.myc…
In 2008 I built two sites that were paid projects, this is one of them: web.archive.org/web/20090423090753/http://www.pho… This was the second paid project I did, I see what I did in 2008 is still there exactly as I left it: audioauditing.com
2009 and onward I almost never touched a soldering iron again and focused solely on web development since I enjoyed it so much.
