When I released my first piece of open source software in 1999, I hosted it on my desktop Linux machine out of my apartment on a cable modem connection over dynamic DNS. I popped it up on Freshmeat[1] and then watched the Apache logs scroll by while eating dinner on the couch. One of the coolest feelings in my career.
