Hello.

My name is Sho Kuwamoto, and I've been hanging around the web for about ten years. I've kept a relatively low profile over the years, possibly for different reasons than you might think.

For the last eight+ years of my life, I've been working at Macromedia. I started out on the Dreamweaver team, as an engineer on version 1 of the product. At some point, I may tell a story or two about those times.

Since then, I've spent most of my time here overseeing engineering for Dreamweaver and related products, such as HomeSite, UltraDev, Fireworks, Contribute, and even FreeHand (for a brief period!)

Recently, I've shifted gears again (still at Macromedia) and now I spend most of my time thinking about Flex. I'll be blogging primarily about Flex, but I'll also blog about HTML, CSS, and Dreamweaver, as well as general thoughts about software engineering.

I'm a relative latecomer to the blog world. Let's hope that I have something interesting to say, and that someone listens.

P.S. Bonus points will be awarded if anyone can dig up my first (silly) web project.
P.P.S. Don't spoil it if you already know.
P.P.P.S. You won't find it on the wayback machine.

Nope.. Good work, though. Keep guessing!

I've looked and looked, (you are all over google btw ;) but I give up.

Either way, welcome to the blogging world, looking forward to your posts!

I'm all over Google? And here I'd been proud of myself for keeping myself relatively Google-free. :-)

As for the site in question:
Hint #1: It predates the Wayback machine, which started in (I believe) 1995.
Hint #2: If you look hard enuogh, you can still find references to it, in stale web pages, and other forms of media.

Ding, ding, ding, ding!! We have a winner! How did you find it? (BTW, I am proud to say that the New York Times called my website stupid. This was, of course, on purpose.)

I found it from a Goggle search, of course... about page 7 of the results: http://www.forbesfield.com/lunch.html

Looking forward to hearing your new Flex-oriented Blog, by the way.

Thanks! I think I'm going to wait until tomorrow to start on the Flex-oriented content.
