Starting in 1994, The Tech began posting an archive of the comic strips on its website, making Firehose Tavern one of the first comics available on the Web.

Before launching Creative Good, Hurst, after graduating from MIT, had landed a job with web startup Yoyodyne, where he served as director of product development. “In the 18 months I spent at Yoyodyne,” said Hurst, “I designed all the games and user interfaces that over a million Net users played. I designed email games, Web games, Shockwave, Java, real-time, chat, AOL, MSN, you name it. Any environment online, I was there.” Seth Godin, Yoyodyne founder and president, described Hurst (in a 1997 New York Times profile about Hurst) as “one of the smartest people I have ever met, a person with a unique and correct vision of where interface is going.” Hurst left Yoyodyne in January 1997 to found Creative Good.
