I selected commerce with computer for higher secondary (12th Grade). From there I learned HTML — the basic language of the web. I started building my school website but it didn't host. After that I went to Bangalore for higher studies — the IT city of India.
I often visited Safwan's room in 2nd year and saw him always coding. Then I thought of creating a website by my own effort. I started with HTML (basic). Nothing can construct without a good base.
Then I thought about a Kerala tourism website — but Google showed lots of websites for it. One day I noticed an Alphabetic Quotes Book. Great idea — make an alphabetic quotes website. I made WorldQuotes.in, hosted on 23 April 2010. This increased my typing speed to 36 WPM!
I didn't look back till 2011. WorldQuotes.in was static and I wished to make it dynamic so visitors could also add Quotes. To do a dynamic site I needed to know Programming Codes, so I did a short-term programming course from Baabra and later changed my site.
