Those are some good basics. Tracking user actions can be very useful: I use it on movieterminals.com to see everything that gets typed into each console. The theory being that (one day?) I'll use that to enhance the scripts to work how peop

At the time the web was only a couple of years old and it was yet to even hit the "lets get serious" radar of just about everyone. Essentially, no. There was no one with a very refined aesthetic making websites at the time. Even the Louvre'
