Man, I started building sites in the mid to late 90s as a kid, for shits and giggles, then it became trendy to hire a "whizz kid" and people paid me to build garbage...web design business was so easy back then..."Your Dad says you know how to build websites? If I give you £500 will you build me one?"...hell yeah I will, we can have a big fucking banner, some scrolling marquees..."sure kid, whatever just make it look good"...no meetings, no wireframes, no bug trackers just here is £500 build me a site kid...by the way I'm a plumber. Here is my brochure...make it look like that.

Then your work began. First stop, looking for gifs of spinning spanners, cartoon dudes with hard hats on. Then you'd get the domain and hosting, put an "under construction" page up...man good times. I wish I could just "build a website" today...but you can't...you have to have 10 people involved bike shedding the fuck out of the fonts instead of having fun...and fucking soul destroying WordPress.

All of this is nostalgic.
