About Szabolcs Bakos

The beginning

I was born in 1979 in Hungary in a small town, Salgotarjan. I first met a computer, a C-64, when I was 4. This bond has been unbroken since then. Thanks for fate or whatever, I got to know Sylvio and made friends with him. He was then the leader of the C-64 cracker team of the worldwide known Triumwyrat.

After the C-64 era I soon switched to a pc thanks to Monkey Island. Unfortunately the Amiga computers could not grab my attention. By that time, I had already made friends with Pir8 and Alone Studio (rip), the two most well-known software pirates of Eastern Hungary.

With their help I had the opportunity to keep testing the latest software long before they got public.

A Hero is Emerging

I first encountered the internet around 1997, in the first internet café of Eastern Hungary, with the two owners of which I made friends straight away. They helped me to have internet among the firsts. There I got to know everything about the internet, the websites, their system and style, and all ins and outs.

Paintshop pro 5 was my first graphic software and Netscape Composer was my first HMTL editor. As luck would have it, the owners of the café happened to know Andras Nyiro, one of the most outstanding figures of the development and launch of internet in Hungary, who hired me to develop two portals...

The Present

With more than 10 years of experience, I work as a freelancer web 2.0 designer, I design websites, portal systems for private persons, companies and state-run firms. My tasks involve keeping contact with clients, providing consultancy, making design plans, front-end, and building blogs and portals.

The Future

My aim is to reach international reputation and build foreign relationships, so my blog has been created to serve this plan too. I am currently looking for projects and opportunities.

In my free time I do freelance designing, learn English or fight with a profoundly mysterious enemy in an online world.
