My, how time flies when you’re having fun.

Interesting though, a few months ago, I stumbled across a news article in Wired, I think, talking about the web archive [http://web.archive.org] where you could see old versions of Yahoo and the like.

Natch, I didn’t think little old us would turn up on their pages but there we were — at least going back to 1997 — interested, check it out at:

We haven’t changed all that much — comes down to a couple of very basic rules: Keep it simple (Stupid!) and if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Who are you really?

We’re Beads Bali (well, you already know that).

The company, at this time, is made up of myself (Sean), my wife Athina and a group of local silver smiths and bead makers. There is also my wife’s puppy, Jolie, and my black lab, Mojo.

We live here in Bali, fairly close to the beach (I can see it from my window as I type this).

I’m fairly new to the beading business but I’ve been working professionally in Bali for the last ten years (or more) exporting handicrafts and furniture around the world with Indonesia Export.
