How WholeNote Are You?

In early June of 1998, two New York University grad students sat down at the Bendix Diner on the West Side of Manhattan to architect their joint graduate thesis. As an experiment, being both avid guitarists and programmers, they decided to create a unique community-based website to cater to the two strongest characteristics inherent to guitarists: their desire to get better, and their generosity in sharing what they know. The result of this meeting was the conception of the WholeNote.com website, and the birth of the remote publishing and sharing of musical instruction on the Internet.

In the summer of 1999, WholeNote.com was officially launched, using server space generously donated by the Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) at New York University. The site was an immediate success, resulting in numerous awards, coverage in Guitar Player Magazine and other industry publications, and being named "Best Community Website" at the 1999 Invision Awards presented by New Media Magazine.
