Domain. Solely for the curious and the bored. If there's ever a
"Guess random facts about Marie" quiz,
I bet most of the questions would probably more than likely not really be from anything here. I like confusing sentences.
Version. The latest version of the network, in a little handy-dandy sized button all for your own convience. I know you don't want to
read about how the layout was made - you just want to know the version number. I feel you, I feel you.
ye olde history
Get-fighted.net is my newest domain, and yet, my second oldest. In effect, it is the reborn version of
adelleda.net and was purchased in a fit
of hysteria. Ah, but I digress.
Adelleda.net was purchased in 2004 to serve as my personal domain and sanctuary. We were hosted with
Cyperpixels (who I refuse to link to) for
the longest time, and let me be frank when I say, we had our ups-and-downs. Way downs. As in, below-the-crust-of-the-Earth-and-penetrating-into-the-other-side-o-the-planet downs.
For as much as I love that name and what it was based on, I have never been more frustrated owning a domain. And yet, I am a glutton for punishment, and kept at it for 3 years,
until I was finally forced to look at just how deep our "relationship" had fallen.
In
May 2007, Cyberpixels forgot to send in a renewal payment for
adelleda.net's registration and the domain went down. Completely frantic, I phoned, emailed,
and harrassed until I was told that there was nothing they could do - the domain name was gone. Fearing the worst and foolishly believing them, I purchased
get-fighted.net through
Godaddy.com and hosted it with my already existing
Dreamhost account. Thus, the birth of
the
Guilt Free Network was one of angst and drama out the wazoo.
Adelleda.net is still technically up - though a redirect, but it won't be for long and nothing is on it. For as much as I loved and enjoy that domain, I felt it was necessary
to make a complete break with that part of my life, and that hosting company. And an entire rename (to my favorite song by my favorite English-speaking band) seems to be exactly what I needed.
Boring, right? I told you it would be.
