My first code was written on notebook paper at a young age. It taught me to be meticulous, to think everything through and to use my brain like a debugger. Back then I was working with a 1MHz processor and 64KB RAM. Today`s computing firepower makes me feel rich beyond my wildest dreams. Years later, when I create software, I`m filled with the same giddiness I felt writing code in a notebook, eagerly waiting for my turn on the library`s computer so I could type it all in. The joy of creation, this infinite medium and the feeling that anything is possible keep me coming back for more. ©
