Third Generation Geekiness

I'm going to start teaching my nephew HTML today so he can learn how to build websites. This got me thinking.

My dad was designing web sites back in the day (and he still does, by the way) and actually knew how to program our old, old, old, old Macintosh.

I have learned some HTML, CSS, a tiny little smidgeon of PHP (Thanks, Nick and Mike!), Pascal, C++, Visual Basic and other geeky whatsits. Master of none, by the way, but I did well enough to land a CS teaching position at a private school back in '01.

And now, the third Hacken generation is entering the world of geekiness. I think I'm gonna cry. No, but seriously.

I gotta go listen to "White & Nerdy" now before I get all teary-eyed.
