It was my first serious work for foreing customers, and it was not outsorcing, it was product!
So I'm still proud being working there.

During 2 years that I worked here I created many many web sites - 30?,50?, 60? - I cannot remmember exactly, but average was 1 website for 1 (2) week.
So this job teaches me words 'deadline', 'repository' and 'team spirit'.
