TweakTown

TweakTown is a tribute to my late grandfather, Val Grimm, who first sparked my interest in computers long ago. The site was officially named and made public on September 15, 1999. Initially, TweakTown started as "Wilmot's Website," which served as my personal homepage featuring information about myself and links to other sites. Over the years, TweakTown has evolved into one of the largest and most successful tech websites globally, attracting tens of thousands of visitors each day. You can check out the video titled "TweakTown over the Years - a look at our designs from 1999 to 2011" to see our journey.
