How else would one know about him? I’ve been following his True Facts series for years.

I loved playing around with the Flash toys he built on his website (like 20 years ago).

I dunno.

I’ve been a fan since The Show.

I’m now watching this again, because apparently I need the reminder. I played this for for my crew that I worked with for 6 years, back in 2012.

Huh. Never knew about that.

It’s unfathomable - I’ve been a fan since like 2001 when I discovered his website and all the fun Flash games that existed therein.

I’m old.

In 2001, Frank created an online birthday invitation and sent it to seventeen of his closest friends. Forwarded wildly, the invitation soon generated millions of hits and over 100 gigabytes of daily web traffic to Frank’s personal website. The site grew to include interactive group projects, short films, animations, and video games, many Flash -based, including children’s educational videos featuring handy tips such as “Don’t vacuum your face.”

Frank won a 2002 Webby Award for Best Personal Website (People’s Voice) and in 2005, he was featured in Time Magazine’s “50 Coolest Websites.”

It, and he, are the fucking best. The most honest and real, and he took the time to record it all and give it to us. The Show was so fucking amazing.

This one: it’s just a reminder of life. I can’t thank him enough for making it.

How to dance properly.

Definitely. Unfortunately most of his old stuff is Flash-based...

He was something of an inspiration to me way back then (I was in design school at the time). His playfulness combined with creativity and technical ability was just so infectious. I made some projects in Shockwave that were very much inspired by him (simple audio/visual “games” that were actually more like experiences, just to play with, not to finish or complete).

I’m going to have to watch them all.

The Show was so fucking amazing. I can’t even get into it.
