FatCow Web Hosting
January 1999
Moo.
Fatcow Web Hosting, L.L.C. is a web hosting company created by the marriage of a New Mexico insurance company and Click here! the Internet Company.
Originally calling themselves http://www.nwrks.net/ (that is, "Net Works") they eventually legally changed their name to "Fat Cow" after several jokes were made about a photograph posted on their internal forums. What was the photo? It was of No. 26 -- a heifer that liked to sit under a certain shadey tree nearby. (The original photo of the original Fat Cow is included in the gallery.)

Fred Saberhagen's Worlds of SF and Fantasy
January 1999
I'm a fan. What else is there to say? Except that perhaps when I say I'm a fan I mean it in the good i-have-every-single-book-he's-written way, not in the way that brings a chill up Stephen King's spine. And I'm not exagerating on that point. I have a copy of every book Fred's written. Half the titles signed by Fred for helping with his web site.
They didn't use much of what I gave them though because Joan frowned (or at least I imagined her frowning) at the sight of the javascript roll-overs. She wanted something simple she could manage herself without a vast amount of needless energies being expended. Oh well.

Calcomp Technology, Inc.
May 1998
In slightly modified format, this site probably wins an award for having the longest life time as far as web sites go. At least a year and a half or more.
They just recently finally upgraded, which is somewhat of a shame because some of the JavaScript created for their site was very useful as a tutorial -- they had a full-fledged JavaScript database for their reseller section. Alas.

City of Aliso Viejo
November 1997
The planned City of Aliso Viejo decided to put a combination community bulletin board and real estate site up on the internet. Now originally the site used ColdFusion CGI we programmed to automate things for them. Since then though they apparently wanted to make some layout changes and the CGI got in their way. The layout remains mostly intact, but the code is gone.

Javascripts.com
January 1997
Javascripts.com was originally the home site of Click here! The Internet Company. We'd been doing contract work for them for a while when they asked a question: They asked if we'd like to overhaul JavaScripts.com to bring in more traffic.
JavaScripts.com was reborn sometime around March of '97 (or there abouts). It was our first _high_ traffic site, so we made several mistakes, but also learned alot about fine tuning a living breathing dynmaic website. And about the importance of community. It underwent a few major revisions overtime and was eventually sold sold to developer.com. At that time a friend of ours from Canada, Paul Summers was hired to continue on in the position of webmaster for the site.
There were several other people who worked on the Javascripts.com site as well in it's later days. Mike Page (aka Supercool) was responsible for the most memorable refinements. He brought to the table the concept and code of emailing a user's password to their registered email address. He was the closest thing to an assistant webmaster that the site had as I recall.
The only two other "helpers" I can remember that the owners ever let caress the site code were Paul Summers (aka Prowl of whiteflame.com) who Earthweb recently gave the job of webmaster and Kurt Anderson (of andersonhouse.com fame) who introduced the concept of actually trying to get people to advertise on the site.
