The site is called DaniWeb because I wanted to create the site as a hobby when I was in college, and I happened to have had the domain name daniweb.com that I used to use when I was 13 years old to post photos of my dogs, and I didn't feel like spending the ten bucks on a new domain name.

You already had your own personal domain when you were 13?? I was like playing Counter Strike when I got into that age O_O

The copy of the old site shows you were pretty talented and focused at 13 YO. No wonder Daniweb is what it is today - way to go!

Gaargh! I told you that purple was a brain-frier. But would you listen? No. iCarly on steroids. And it's insidiously infective. I bought a purple tie last month. Purple?!
I'll join the Praetorian guard next...

Haha. I love my purple. You can see I've loved it for half my life, at least :)
