How everything started?

My interest on programming started in 1996 when I got my first computer. With the incentive of a uncle I’ve started programming in Dbase II Plus, Clipper and Pascal. In 1997 I did a hardware crash course and started working with Visual Basic e Borland Delphi. Next year I created a search engine in Perl, something like the old Brazilian “Cadê” and with my cousin I published a search engine site called “Primus”. In 1999 I went to a technical course in information technology and started my professional life.
