Internet Guru - History

History

 

John Pierce constructed his first web site in 1994. Due to growing interest in the world wide web he began teaching web site construction in early 1995.Internet Guru was established in 1998 after requests from teaching clients for John to work on web site development projects. The name Internet Guru was chosen to reflect the educational work that we undertook.

Internet Guru in conjunction with Binary Blue has often been involved in innovative web site development and research projects. Recent projects include developing a web log for student journals and the development of an interactive web site design aid (Usability Wizard).

Over the last 3 years Internet Guru has ventured into video and audio development. This work as included working with filmmakers through OPENchannel to assist them in making the transition from video to online delivery. Other projects have include video post production and streaming for Detyrtus and technical production / programming for the web based documentary A Year on the Wing.

John tries to avoid doing nerdy things like visiting slashdot, but sometimes he just can't help himself.
