I'm not web IT but games started my IT career, though perhaps differently to how people would expect. Dad got a computer when I was 8. I played games. At uni, while studying other things, I played games and had no money. In those days having a LAN party and getting people on the same game, same version, same mods, different OSs, different specc'ed machines etc was an effort! Eventually ended up Application Packaging to earn a living. And I've moved on from there.
