No, you're wrong.
Contrary to what people may say, I didn't catch myself in the usual, average race for another meaningless, lookalike homepage from the average geek. The Internet is perhaps the best communications and informations sharing medium we could have ever desidered, and because of this I've been finally sold on building a very little personal space, where other people could collect (more or less) useful informations from my (rather limited) personal experience, while, at the same time, hoping for some sort of generous contribute from anyone else willing to improve my uncertain culture :-)
In order to maximize navigation pleasure, I built a very basic site without Java applets, XML, frames, but most of all free from all those pesky HTML Browser-specific deviations, all too easily "sold" as standards. Consider it eternally under construction, come back often and check for updates! I really do prefer to look at the freeware software world, when searching for "Internet survival tools" (so to say), not only for the priviledge of using freely a lot of very good software, but because I believe that it's in the freeware world, uncommitted to the standard market logic, where the true standards for exchanging informations are supported to their fullest. My favourite browser (although not the most frequently used, due to all those crappy sites out there that require Internet Explorer to be seen properly!) is the excellent Opera, which I always use to check my HTML work for correctness and compliance to W3C HTML 4.0 Standard, although I do also appreciate Mozilla (the latest versions have still a few bugs to be worked out, though...). All the site has been done, and is maintained with, the excellent HTML editor 1st page 2000.
Effective from November 18th, This site is powered by the fabulous Apache, easily one of the most widely known and appreciated Web Servers worldwide.
Enjoy your stay!
