Almost forgot .. June 5th was the site's » 8th anniversary. Happy birthday to Radified.
Was a little distracted at the time. No wonder I missed it. Everything turned out okay, tho. (So we're good to go.)
This is where I usually review the site's origins, philosophy, milestones & future. But I recently revised the About page to include this (+ inject more Rad techno-ego).
Eight is a long time in web-years. We were just getting started back when the dot-com industry was melting-down. Consequently, a small percentage of sites on the web today are older than 8.
This is our first b-day at our new VPS. Maybe someday we'll host on a dedicated web server, or at least a hybrid.
Besides a new web host, this past-year we got an open source version of Movable Type, a new table-less layout for the home page, a new Rad URL (compliments Apache mod_rewrite), and numerous upgrades to the forum (compliments YaBB).
