Fandom History

I first got on the internet around 1998. All my teachers at school kept recommending to my mother to get me a computer, so eventually she did. A few months later, early in 1999, I started to build websites. My first was a Xena one, and it was a huge learning experience. That slowly morphed into just Xena Guys, and then most of that dropped to what is today my Caleb Ross site, which is still running.

In the five years since, I've had a variety of websites, some given up due to lack of time, some because of interest, and others that have morphed so much they've become something else entirely. Early in 2003 I then started to get into fanlistings. At first I thought they were a bit pointless (just a list of fans? Where's the fun?), but I wanted something extra for my Caleb site, so I applied and was approved for his fl. It's still going now and has gained more members than I seriously ever, ever expected.
