Special thanks to Stefan Münz for his excellent SELFHTML compendium, without which this website would probably still look like it did in 1996!
And thanks to our numerous helpers who have pointed out errors and made valuable suggestions.

You will not find the usual lengthy disclaimers here. Everybody copies them from everybody else, and they only get longer in the process, but their legal effect is usually nil.
We create our own web pages using manual HTML, CSS,
and Javascript.
We test our website with the more current versions of Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer as well as Opera.
In our limited experience, almost everything looks reasonably OK on other more
current browsers. Minor formatting inconsistencies are, however, unavoidable. We
have acquiesced to these limitations in order to be able to offer an up-to-date
and informative website at reasonable cost and largely with in-house resources.
Our server does not deposit anything on your computer beyond the pages that
you see (no cookies!) and does not execute any code detrimental to
your system.
Version 1.x: We have had a web site since 1995, when this became technically and commercially feasible for small businesses and individuals in Germany, in 1995.
Version 2.x: In early 1996, we reserved our own domain name, rented space on a server in Southern Germany, and created our first fully fledged web site. In mid-1996,
we moved our web site to a server on the U.S. east coast.
Version 3.x: Our web pages were completely redesigned and, in part, rewritten in September
of 1997.
Version 4.x: We learned a lot! In August 1999, we streamlined and completely updated our web site. Using cascading style sheets and frames greatly simplifies maintenance, and loading speeds were improved.
(We still write all HTML, CSS, and JavaScript manually, although we now use Microsoft Expression Web as a development environment.)
Version 5.x: In 2002, our site was further streamlined and revised for the new CI. We also moved our main
website to a different provider
(in Germany again this time) offering more options and better service.
Version 6.x: The new website for Triacom Dental was rolled out in the winter of 2005/2006. It features many new and streamlined options and a fresher and leaner look thanks to the increased use of JavaScript. The new design has also been applied to www.triacom.com — in fact, technically speaking the two are one and the same site, with a clever
“switched” concept ensuring that the reader gets to see just those pages he or she might be interested in.
Over the years, we have received a lot of positive feedback for our website, which was one of the first in the field of translation. The Translation Journal 8:4 (October, 2004) lists our website as the first entry under the heading of “Translators' Best Web Sites.” We are proud of your praise, Gabe!
We believe that the number of page impressions for our site is quite respectable. 2001 may have marked the peak – but ever more websites are vying for attention all the time.
