## The design relaunch (1.5.2001)

Many people ask me about the reason for <b>moonweb.org</b>. During my studies, I started to think <b>more globally</b>. I already had
some contacts through Fidonet, but serious networking and communication started with the internet. The first step was to build up
an <b>internet brand</b>, and I started with the first planets.org webpages. I quickly realized an internet brand has to have
its <b>own domain</b>. As everyone can expect, planets.org was already taken, and after sleepless nights, <b>moonweb.org</b>
became the domain of the moment.

<b>So why have I relaunched the design of this domain?</b>
Sure, there has not been much activity in the last two years on moonweb.org, but the main reason to update this page was
to collect all the projects and products we created over the past 10 years and document them on this webpage.

<b>Are there still some active projects or new products?</b>
Yes, and I hope there are still more to come. Stay tuned.
More about the upcoming projects and products in the next months.
