   Since you all liked the server photo so much, today you get a different #DynDNS historical artifact: me!

   This is me in the Room Where It Happened, the actual place where DynDNS started - my sister's old bedroom in my childhood home, endpoint of the previously mentioned 26400 bps modem connection.

   Exact date unknown, so I can't say for sure if I was working on DynDNS here at the time, but it's of the right era. If you think I look young, you're right, I started DynDNS at 16. #DynDNSHistory

     @ai6yr less "sold", more "was forced out by friends turned business partners turned less than friends". I plan to get there in the #DynDNSHistory series, but if you want a preview and like reading court filings, you can check out https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4306489/dynamic-network-services-inc-v-wilde/

     @jtk my bedroom's curtains were just plain blue, as I recall. And I had a border of trains (we decorated the rooms when we were considerably younger, like, when I was 9 or 10. Maybe even 8? Loooong ago.
