About Bootstrike

The website first started in October 1997 at my old ISP, providing a little info on myself and a Ultima VII Walkthrough, all in two pages. As weeks pass by, I found out my leisure is sitting in front of the computer looking for new things to include in the site. The result, you see this. It's still being continuously updated.

Previous web hosts in order as best as I can remember: Pacific Net, Singnet (changed ISP), Geocities (insufficient space, and Xoom(now closed), 2 times as name changed), SpacePorts (very short, despise the ad frame), FreedomToSurf (ceasing of free service), Tripod (bandwidth overuse), MobileRingTonez courtesy of James Lewis of Twister Labs(server had to move), on Philip Veale's server, HostingZoom (16th Aug 2005, DNS and raw log problems) and now on Dreamhost.

Currently the site is receiving daily unique hits of 1200 - 2300. I've received many comments on the site, mostly positive and a few negatives popping in once in a while, commenting on the prank calls mostly. I especially like people signing the guestbook!

Website Designs

Here it is. Bootstrike.Com had many design makeovers so far. All these were done 100% by me (till Marc came over). Click on the image to get a bigger view.

Design #1 (Initial) It has DHTML Menu style menus and bloated HTML code, with Frontpage. Quite messy too, to add.	Design #2 (Mar 2001) A better interface. Got a new toy to play with, Dreamweaver, and this is what I came out with. Farewell to Frontpage.	Design #3 (Nov 2001) A much neater interface. The navigation has been brought to the top with XP-style new tabs for quick links. Kinda stylish.

Design #4 (June 2002) OK I admit it, the previous design sucked. This new design combines the previous two designs. I like this design a lot compared to the rest.	Design #5 (Sept 2003) For this design, many inputs were gathered and implemented. Header size reduced, new options and	Design #6 (May 2005) Needed some slight changes, so here is the new one. Thanks to Marc
(coming)
Design #7 (Jan 2008) Minus the lines and a cleaner interface

About Webmaster

Name's Ganesh. I'm an Indian(Tamil speaking) of 24 years old living in Singapore. My main hobbies evolved around computers (which is how this site came out) and a tinny tiny portion dedicated to occasional sports which are cycling, swimming and badminton.

My education roots came from Bedok Town Primary School, then to Bedok North Secondary School. Having scored particularly well in the Cambridge GCE 'O' Levels, I chose to purse a Diploma In Information Technology in Temasek Polytechnic instead of continuing to Junior College due to my interest of knowing more about computers and programming.

Now, I have completed the course and am studying in National University of Singapore for a Computing degree.
