I always thought it was Hotmail, probably because my first email address was using Hotmail and that was sort of my first introduction to computing.

I had HotMetal Pro. I got it on a cd in a library book sale.

Add enough JavaScript frameworks and I'm sure the metal gets very hot indeed.

HTML = hit mill
It's like a machine (mill) that gets you hits (web traffic)

HTTP = hitch tip
It's the tip of the hitch that you attach to the hit mill
