A warm welcome to Web With Molly, a web site once upon a few Browser War generations ago fostered by the Web’s own “Fairy Godmother” also known as Molly E. Holzschlag. This domain acted as a means of extending free or nearly-free education and meetups from as few as 5 people to as many as several thousand!
Most of us are aware that even Fairy Godmothers get sick and bad things happen to all people. Still, as long as we live, purpose is the magic ingredient, not Javascript! Even if your hips and back hurt like hell, your beard is turning grey (mine is), your hair is disappearing altogether, you’re hungover or “YES to all” it is purpose which helps to guide and shape the quality of our lives.
Real life is for living and most life-learners agree that we live to learn! With the onset of 2020, it became clear to your Godmama Miss Molly here that a career-long dream did not die in the despair of industry changes – of which many of us deeply disagree. Rather, it has become a reminder that evolution demands we adapt, not the other way around.
The Web’s long dream “. . . did not die in the despair of industry changes . . . Rather, it has become a reminder that evolution demands we adapt, not the other way around.”
Holzschlag, 2020
As such, I re-present to you Web With Molly and look forward to what we can do together for each other, for the World, for the Wide and for the Web we still love.
