Since no personal website is ever complete without a touch of narcissism, I added this section. My name is Tristan Louis and you are visiting my site.
Just to give you the lowdown, I moved from France to the
USA
in 1985, have been online since before then, and
on the Internet since 1988
.
I discovered the web in 1992 and never looked back. In the process, I've
worked at several places
and tried to do my part to
help improve things
. In 1995, I launched
TNL
.net as a place to experiment with new technologies. Every line of code in this site was carefully crafted over a long period so if you find any bugs, they are all mine as every piece of code on the website was one I wrote myself.
In the meantime, I've also managed to
go to school
,
write and publish a few pieces
, and
teach myself a few programming tricks
.
I like to think of myself as an internet pioneer but the truth is really that I was in the right place (the internet industry) at the right time (1993). Since then, my love for the Internet has only increased as more and more has happened to potentially make it the most useful medium ever invented.
I hope that in some ways, the things I've added to this site has made your life a little easier. It has been an interesting journey so far but I'm ready to bet that this is only the beginning.
