Thank you for visiting The Serpent.

The Serpent was launched in May 2002, replacing my old website hosted on Tripod. Back then it was simply known as the 'payne747.tripod.com' website, and was started when I was 17. It featured content relating to Windows 98, a few tips and tricks and even some small C++ tutorials.

The aim of the website was to be an informative, easy to understand tool for techies and people wanting to learn more about computing in general. Mainly targeting the desktop audience, it also branched into programming and development topics as well.

It soon became clear that the site needed to expand and modernise, so The Serpent was born. Following the same basic principals as the old Tripod site, The Serpent stills aims to educate anyone willing to learn more about computing, through the use of guides, articles, news, and tutorials, while still presenting the information clearly, simply and without confusion.

I hope you find what you're looking for on this site, and who knows? You may even discover things you never knew.
