OK, so I'm a child of the 90's, well I was born in the 80's, but conscious for the 90's. So I'm basically, a child of the Internet revolution. The thing is, back a few years ago, I was ahead of the game. Let me explain...
Some dude from the "Clan" of PS (Pikachu Sucks) owned a website. I visited one day, for unknown reasons, and joined a chat room. After getting kicked out, I was very interested, in how said person, was able to remove me from the chat room. This man eventually offered me the chance to learn how to "hack." Little did I know, that the "hacking" he was talking about, was simply using the Admin commands of a chat room client. This, however, was back in the day of the infancy of the Internet, and I was much more gullible then. This man led me through numerous steps to "hack" but never really taught me anything. So I never learned how to "hack." This lead me instead, to create my own site on Angelfire, and learn HTML. I wish I remembered the person who led me to this epiphany. I was quite the "man" in my middle school, for showing my class mates my website. I had a lot of fun making my website and adding all the bells and whistles, like a framed sides and some DHTML to make curious cursors. However after a while I gave up on the site, eventually the site was deleted I assume.
Many years later, I wish I had stuck with my idea, wish I had stuck with the HTML that I learned, but I didn't.
Now I'm here, looking for the next big thing, trying to make money. I wonder now, if I had stuck with the path I was on, if I would have been able to make money from my skill. I would, after all, have been ahead of the curve. Now there are billions of websites and so many good ideas, it's hard to figure out, what is the next big thing?
I am, a man of always looking forward, I look for what the future may hold. The future is hard to read, especially before it happens, go figure. I feel that the next "big thing" is just waiting to be discovered, I just have to find it. So lately my quest is to discover this "big thing". The Internet is a wonderful tool to use, but to use it properly, is a key to success. I, myself, am looking for the best way to use this "tool". Haven't found it yet, I'll let you know when I do.
