The Archive

Preserved pages from 1997 to 2005. Kept as close to the original as possible — including the questionable color choices.

1997

Mygale age 14

My actual first website, hosted on Mygale — a legendary French free hosting service. Made with Hot Dog Pro. Featured programming opinions (Delphi vs Visual Basic, obviously Borland wins), Games Workshop fan pages, an empty software catalog for "Trisoftware" (a company I was going to start with friends), and a page that loaded 20 banner ads to support the host.

2000

Free.fr age 17

Three years later, my first year at EPITA. I bought a Sony Vaio SR1K with my own money, installed Debian, and wrote about it. The page got linked from linux-laptop.net. I was asking for help on Usenet the same day.

sarfata.org age 19–22

A hand-coded site hosted on l'autre net, a French self-managed hosting co-op. A simple blog — entries written directly in HTML.
