Is this really Nerdheaven or just the outer edges of experimentation? It may seem like a dumb question to wonder how long, and big, you can make a world wide web page but it is consuming our everyday life. It is pressing on our consciousness_________ as we try________ to_______ ____ imagine the outer ______limits of webmania. _______ _What are the limiting ____ _____________ factors to how big a web page is? Hmmmm. Is it a person's patience? After all a huge page will take longer to download. How many bytes would the biggest page be? How big would the pipe have to be? Would you follow a line just to see how very far it goes, and if it might just be into infinity, but then perhaps you would lose patience and decide to scroll down to find out more info and more MD```V@$```"0``#:`0```)8``#`````%ID````` pictures just in case there was something of  value ____because we're all in a quest to add value to our lives,___ _______ our brains, our bodies, our souls (now that soul part just kinda fell in there, but for some they may see themselves adding value to their souls. it is a comforting thought in some ways. But we digress, we are on a quest to see how big a world wide web page can be - we have read many rules that say a world wide web page should not be any wider than 479 pixels - and we gasped in horror because `#TG````````/2<````````])P````````" we know that an IBM monitor is much wider - you can throw even Macromedia 640 x 480 pixels out the window because the IBM monitors are wide and skinny... it gave us pause G0````````*=```` although we are diehard Macintosh lovers $=R87!H:#0A!('!R:6Uto question who really knew.So, we asked ourselves what if the page were designed to be as limitless as the universe, as big as the ocean, as unrestricted as our dreams? And i got all charged up about it so it woke me up at night and i rhapsodized how powerful it would be when it hit your ears. But then perhaps you will not be so impressed. The secret to webdesign if there is a secret, is to be modular so that whatever screen dimensions a user has it will look right. Of course we patted ourselves on the back because this is a very smart and ideal way to design -- to give the user flexibility -- but can it be done? After all we have been raised in the school of graphic design where an image moved even a fraction of a decimal point, a pixel out of place, can cause any self-respecting art director to experience heart palpitations. Now the dilemma is can we really allow the images to float around in some kind of loose and unrestricted ether - where the user is in control by virtue (now that's a nice word for Nerdheaven) of how they position the screen and the parameters of their browser window. Well Nerdheaven is a place where we can mull over these ideas, and throw them up in the air, and twirl them around -- hoping they won't come splat down on our faces -- but that is the danger of webdesign -- a risky career where bits and bytes are forever floating around just ready to come back and say you said this in 1995 and we can track down your every word because on the web there is no privacy and anyone who believes they are operating in a safe cocoon is like an ostrich hiding their head in the sand -- we have unprecedented powers to track down whomever we want and know exactly what they said -- it is not just Big Brother, it is the Omnipotent Eye but I digress, it is important to stick to the topic which is "how big can we make a World Wide Web Page?" I would be sticking my neck out as long as this line if I continued on much longer because in truth I think the answer is the size of the page is only limited by your ambition and your perseverence to keep slogging away typing forever into your text editor. ______________ But then that can get tedious and it only holds our attention for so long before our stomach rebels and refuses to wait, or our bodies decay from too much time sitting in front of the computer, and our hands fall off from carpal tunnel syndrome...is this fun or isn't it? If you are still with me thank you for reading along. I wish you well, and encourage you to write to us. We love all sorts of ideas and hope you will come here again to play with some very abstract notions of right and wrong in the world of webdesign. As an art director named Carson says, I think he said it but, I could be wrong, so take it with a grain of salt, he said it's not brain surgery like there is a body on the table and life is hanging from a thread. And i think that is true. So, we must have courage and forge ahead on new ideas fearless and firm in our resolve to fight boring, sameness and dullness. Oh yes and the status quo. And the page wasn't really that big was it, (but you got as far as here, congratulations) and you could have done better and made it bigger and everybody would have read along right to the bitter end? Good.
