A. Brief Story of My Internet Experience: 1991-2005
-------------------------------
1. Preamble:

By January 1st 2005 the process of searching out sites, mostly forums for posting and publishing various items of my writing, responding to issues raised on the sites and engaging with specific individuals at these sites, had developed far more than I had anticipated in May 2001, at the start of this site and internet searching process nearly four years ago. In the embryonic years of my internet life, 1991 to 2001 and in the first four years of operating my own website, 1997-2001, I had no idea of the potential for placing the name of the Baha'i Faith and my writings on this world wide web. In those years the internet was essentially a source of information.

G. Concluding Statement:

I hope you enjoy the exercise of your creativity in “The Art of Using The Internet”in the months and years ahead. If I have helped a little in getting you air-born, off the ground, so to speak, I feel I have done my job. Your way of using the internet is, as I’ve said, unique to your interests and idiosyncrasies. You may, on the other hand, prefer to exercise your creativity & skills in ways that do not involve using the internet. It is not an activity for everyone. We each have to find our own way of expressing our creativity in life and in service to the Baha'i Faith. In the one hour available for this subject I have tried to pass on my skill as best I know how and now I leave it to you and those mysterious dispensations of a watchful Providence.
