R.I.P. Webmonkey

When I bluffed my way into a dot com job about 5 years ago, I needed to learn html. And fast. Webmonkey seriously saved my ass. Reading those well-written, humorous and instructional articles about web design, coding and theory were how I learned to do what I do.

I was also lucky to work with Stephanie. She taught me everything else. When I couldn’t decipher why a complicated nested table wasn’t displaying properly, Stephanie would take one look at it and say, “you’re missing a </tr> tag right there.” Having her around was crucial in making sure I didn’t lose my mind and she was a patient, highly-skilled teacher. Stephanie chipped in where Webmonkey couldn’t.

Anyway, the point of all of this is, thanks Webmonkey (and Stephanie!). You rocked my and many people’s world and will be sorely missed.

Webmonkey, 1996 – 2004
