Issac has been involved in the Web community for over 13
years. Having been fascinated by the growing web since the
early 90s, he decided to learn how it all worked. Starting
with basic HTML in 1997, he moved to working on some
HTTP-related IETF standards in 1999-2000. Around then he
started to pick up Perl to use in basic CGI scripts. From
there, he quickly advanced to mod_perl, hacking on the
Apache HTTP server and writing finely-tuned web applications.
Today, he is 30, happily married with 2 boys, and somehow
found himself caught in the crux between online marketing
and internet technologies.
