Collab is a talented and imaginative interactive agency founded late 2003. Our story is one of hard work, determination, and a strong desire to create the best user experiences possible. Our team specializes in producing digital, interactive multi-user applications.

I did first hear of Collab in the year 2004, when alongside with this company, other talented agencies — like Segonquart Studio — were playing the game in the world wide web.
 
 As Tian Gersbach, did mention:

Collab has a very creative chat interface using the potential of video in Flash . Their developments have won several awards, including the renowned Flash in the Can 2004 .

That was in the year 2004. Rewind the tape.
 
 Two years before that date, in the year 2002 this your truly helps an agency named Trigital to build and deploy what we know today as the first web standards compliant portal app , or website, deployed in Europe. It’s doamin: mtv.es, a subsidiary of MTV.co.uk.

Yet, still in our decade, HTML valid and standards compliant.
 
Those were the years of the past decade; years when the Flash Player interactions and Actionscript movies were, if not part of the web standards, a subject of matter and study too. Do not ignore this fact. The Web wasn’t built in a day. Here, you’ll find an evidence of my assertion.
 
This yours truly still fond good memoirs working on and training minds in the field of computing and design.

I remember sharing classrooms middle times and coffees with Tian in those early days. Me? Well, I was in a scientific and R&D’s mood.

He, wearing glasses and with that “a communications and advertising company man” suite.

After these short talks and sessions, intended to spread knowledge and respect. Kinda of a Lab. Once it was finished, we were back to our respective studios. Apologies for the verbosity. Pause.
 
 Collab, Thijs Triemstra & Leo van der Veen included , still holds good examples and works of this milestones explained in his the Lab section of its website
 
Collab’s website deserves Worth a visit. To experience a return to the past and get yourself a chance to have a see and learn from those nice early pioneers Dutch fellas.
