		The Firm List started out as a collection of bookmarks when my bookmark file reached it's limits. It was just going to be one of many lists of "content" to be found at Tables of Content, a small site started on my site electricalsocket.com. But somehow, I never got around to adding any other types of content, and the web design part just grew & grew. The earliest version of The Firm List wasn't anything special design wise, but it was the framework which is the basic structure of the site to this day. In April 2000, a talented designer named Andre Matarazzo submitted a splash page which included certain visual elements which I really liked and after asking permission to use those elements, I've spent the next year adding a new visual interest to this site that many people have responded to nicely. I am indebted to Andre for his help. In the last 10 years, The Firm List has grown to become a network of 30 sites providing tools, resources and information tailored to particular regions. The site has continued to grow beyond all my expectations, with more than 15,000 firms in over 175 countries. Thank you for a wonderful 10 years!   Your Name:   Your Email:   Firm:   First Visit Memories:   Your Best Wishes:     Yes, I confirm that this is a serious birthday wish and not spam.         Your Name:   José Sergio de María   Your First Visit:   Eres un excelente instrumento para mis trabajos.
