in thread Perl viewpoint from stackoverflowers

¬_¬ I would not have ridiculed you in 2002 but I sure would have given you a suspicious, sideways glance. By 2007 or so I would have been telling everyone I was the early adopter and you were just copying me. :P

    Actually it was already in 2000... ;)

    I implemented a search engine for uni lectures which worked offline.

      I was writing my first JS in 1998 but I quickly came to hate it. That was in the browser freezing, impossible debug days. It was jQuery (and the death of IE 5) that brought me back with enthusiasm.

        AH ... the "good" old days were every browser had it's own object model ... ;)

        But I'm not only talking DHTML with DOM and BOM, rather about the core language.
