Blog Past and Future

Blog Past and Future

This blog started as a single static page in 1995 as a set of links to provide to my students while I was teaching at DevelopMentor. I would like to show you a screenshot of that initial page, but as it turns out, the site predates the internet archive, so I can only show you what it looked like in 1998:

a whole new sellsbrothers.com

a whole new sellsbrothers.com

The new sellsbrothers.com implementation has been a while in the making. In fact, I’ve had the final art in my hands since August of 2005. I’ve tried several times to sit down and rebuild my 15-year-old sellsbrothers.com completely from scratch using the latest tools. This time, I had a book contract (“Programming Data,” Addison-Wesley, 2010) and I needed some real-world experience with Entity Framework 4.0 and OData, so I fired up Visual Studio 2010 a coupla months ago and went to town.

Major Retrofit for ASP.NET 1.0

This site, the logo, business cards and t-shirts were designed by guonan. She’s got an amazing style and she’s very easy to work with.

The initial version of this site was implemented by Jon Flanders. The way he was able to make conflicting requirements work for this site was inspirational. Most of what I know about ASP.NET, I learned from this site and Jon.

Initial Launch

This site was launched sometime in 1995. I have no idea when. It was just a home page with a set of links I wanted to share with my students.
