Surprisingly, some still do. Or at least they link to some of my pages. I supposed it pays to be one of the longest surviving sites with some Forbidden Planet content and a catchy domain name. There have been bigger and better individually run sites with the FP topic but they’ve come and gone over the years while mine lumbers on.
Anyways, after years of letting my site get decrepit and increasingly out of date, I decided to get with the 21st century and put up a blog. Of course I’m bringing some of the old content to the new and improved version. Hopefully not dealing with individual HTML files and archaic formats and templates will be allow for a real life to this site.
It’s been 13 years since I put up my original web page at college. In those days I played around with a FileMaker backed webserver on my original PowerMac and thought I’d have time to maintain the “official” anime FTP site list. My enthusiasm paid off for a while back in 1995 and 1996 when there wasn’t much competition for eyes on the web and my sites landed in some printed guides of the day. (Imagine, printed directories of web sites!) Still, here I am once again putting my feet in the water of the online universe.
