When we still asked Jeeves
When we still asked Jeeves
I started my formal training career in August 2000 in Birmingham, Alabama. Shortly after that, I was teaching the basics of HTML 4 coding... we used notepad in those days. It is important to start there because that was my first exposure to Lynda Weinman content. We would go “ask Jeeves” for the web safe color chart and use it in the classroom. The students could then pick their colors and learn about the importance of web safe colors and to understand that monitors didn’t always translate… this seems crazy to me now… To watch her go from the web safe color chart (and way more, just read the wiki) to lynda.com has been amazing. Then to be accepted to produce my content for their subscribers was a dream come true and a full circle moment for me.
