Well... see... there was this crash [^]in the desert of New Mexico... Then Bob's disk-mates were carted off by the Army for medical experimentation, but Bob was carried off unconscious by a roving band of friendly Hamsters.... Bob walked dazed and upset throughout the country with his hamster friends hiding from everyone until they finally found a peaceful home at CodeProject. You can still see the tears in the one eye for his lost disk-mates.... P.S.... Every now and then the US Army tries to break into Code Project Servers to find the exact location of Bob to "repatriate" him for more medical experimentation. The Hamsters get upset, everyone hurriedly moves Bob to a new room in case the special forces squad breaks in.... and then everything returns to normal when nothing happens.... The Hamsters are very protective of Bob.

Actually I was just curious if there was an history behind its creation and design, but your explanation makes perfect sense! :-D

You should ask about SheepGate from back in 2001/2001. It was pretty nasty, and hastily swept under the rug by CP admins. I think there's even a video. Nish?

Shhhh. Don't tell anybody, but it's telepathy. Bob projects his image into the conciousness of all CP adherents using the power of his massive mind (that's why he has such a large forehead).

The network canned it after seeing the pilot. Said it reminded them of "Wormhole" Extreme", but with far too much wooly baaadness for a show in that genre. :doh:

1. In the beginning Bob created a web page. 2. And the web page was without form, and
null; and blankness was upon the screen. And the spirit of Bob moved upon the face of the screen. 3. And Bob said, Let there be interwebz: and there was interwebz. 4. And bob saw the interwebz, that it was OK, though a little laggy and full of annoying under construction animated GIFs, but it was Good Enough. I'll nail it in interwebz 2.0, Bob said. And Bob divided the Orange from the Green, the C++ from the VB, and The Lounge from the Soapbox. 5. And Bod called the Lounge the Lounge, and the Soapbox he called Rants and Raves. And then He changed his Mind and called it The Soapbox. Then Rants and Raves and then Soapbox and then closed it, opened it, and called it Soapbox 2.0. And then The Soapbox. And the evening and the morning were the first day and Bob realised this was harder than he first thought and some specs would have helped. 6. Bob said, Let there be a Chapter, sections and, yea, sub-sections in the midst of the web pages, and let it divide the web pages from the other web pages. 7. And Bob made the Chapter, sections and, eventually, sub-sections, and divided the web pages which were under each Chapter etc etc from the web pages which were in other Chapters etc etc: and it was so. Apart from the web pages which were in the wrong Chapters. 8. And Bob called the Chapters and Sections and also the Lounge and Soapbox CodeTools. And the evening and the morning were the second day, though Bob had not yet rested because he was up all night renaming the Chapters and Sections and also the Lounge and Soapbox to The Code Project because it seemed someone else had already created CodeTools, though it stanketh and was without merit. 9. And Bob said, Let the web pages under the Chapters and Sections be gathered together unto one place, and let the articles appear: and it was so. 10. And Bob called the articles, well, articles, for had had no better name and did not wish to repeat the mess with the Soapbox; and the gathering together of the forums he judiciously called the Forums: and Bob saw that it was good, apart from the trolls, spammers and flame wars. 11.
