Résumé Page

    My Online Business Card: The original concept for my website was that each color of the rainbow stood for one concept and then all subsequent pages followed under each colored heading. That idea sorta worked and stayed. While it's evolved to something more practical online (the Spectrum Pages: Red Page...etc), the idea that some sites are associated with some concept pages still exists. Off and on throughout my time online, folks have asked me for a list of websites that I've done, my online HTML résumé if you will. As my websites (offline concepts) evolved into a more direct way of navigation, the Spectrum Page all but disappeared. I realized I could keep it up as my "business card" and leave the navigation to the other pages.

 Personal Pages

< SITE > Obligatory Pages

Almost every website or weblog in existence has some of the following "standard pages". (Originally dubbed the Light Pages.)


#### About Me: The obligatory "About Me" page.

#### Copyrights: Putting up all copyright notices and disclaimers together saves bandwidth. This is the most complete list I have.

#### Résumé: List of all of my own personal websites & individual webpages. You Are Here.


< RAINBOWS > The Spectrum

The original links & hobbies pages. Stations gathered from the Spectrum pages, Links sections, and Stupid Popular Net Addictions layout.


#### Red Page: "Favorite Things". Originally a long list of favorite media.

#### Orange Page: Originally concepted but never actualized, "Wildflower Field Under the Rainbow" was meant to be a spot for hippiness. It now is my personal link collection for HTML'ing.

#### Yellow Page: "The Yellow Pages" used to be a spot for helpful links. An extremely old school project of mine, "Shake, Rattle, and Learn" was originally supposed to be here. The links for help and guidence while on Usenet still exist, while the AMW-A For Newbies page was moved to my Weird Al site ages ago.

#### Green Page: "It's Not Easy Being Green" indeed! Like this Blue page, this was never easy to conceptualize or implement. It still isn't and remains my hardest page to assign a real role to.

#### Blue Page: Originally not up in any form *at all* until just a couple of years ago, this youngest of the spectrum pages got the assignment of mental and personality challenges after it was all moved off of the Aimeitis Blogspot domain.

#### Indigo Page: Still remains an art gallery, but not for my own images- rather links to others' galleries.

#### Violet/Purple Page: Back before the blog phenomena took off, I had intended the then-Purple page to be "The Column" where I'd post essays. After learning that students can plagerize (read: steal) these things online, I shelved the idea, properly renamed it to Violet, and attempted to establish a music-related blog in this spot. In the 2005-6 reworking of my website (offline) I decided to break up the Red page and put all music-related links here.


 Active Websites

< FANDOM > Fansites

My fansites & their sister sites.


#### Weird Al: Even though the index page was the first webpage I actually uploaded, making a "Weird Al" Yankovic fansite was the reason I wanted to make webpages. Originally designed to be a self-parody of the original Spectrum page, it's currently (October 2006) in bad need of a major tune-up. The review pages need to be moved here from the VERY outdated Prism section. WASS itself has changed urls only once.

#### AMW-A: Always intended to help those who are new to alt.music.weird-al, as no such thing exsisted at the time I joined, it has sadly become one of 2 websites to go to to find information regarding a particularly tenacious Usenet troll. Both Newbie and Troll sections will remain up regardless of what happens.

#### Ian McDiarmid: My second fansite evolved out of my bookmarks folder. An unrelated fansite was complaining about the lack of information available regarding this gifted actor online, so I set out to look anyway. When my list of links reached 77 in number, I offered it to that website. After having received absolutely no reply or acknowledgement from them, I set it up myself. Four factors have contributed to this site's current stagnation: Ian McDiarmid's resignation from the Almeida Theatre (which happened one week after the site was "completed" and all links for the one and only time were all current), the overall decline in newspapers'/newsmagazines' websites allowing for deep linking without registration, a computer crash (without backups) claiming vital update information, and my interests and attentions needing to be elsewhere.

#### Almeida Theatre: In building the Ian McDiarmid site, I came across articles that pertained more to his then-theatre rather than his career. Still relevant, I wanted to keep them up but seperate, so this daughter-turned-sister website went up. It changed urls when I thought I would be able to maintain it more often than I have been.


< RASSM > RASSM-Related

Everything rec.arts.sf.starwars.misc-related and slightly rec.arts.sf.starwars.misc-related.


#### My Various RASSM Stuff: What started as a list of my opinions on popular topics, ended up being the gateway for my other (and larger) related sister sites.

#### Sith War Archives 9-12: I joined the Sith Wars at the end of #8, but began keeping these archives with Sith War #10 because someone else wanted to keep #9. After keeping archives for 3 consecutive wars, and the other person never finishing #9, I decided to do that one too.

#### Sith War Characters: I created these characters for the Sith Wars but I occaisionally use these and others in regular postings. These characters are predominantly Pokémon, aside from a fictionalized version of myself. I originally intended to also create a series of fanfics using these characters, but so far all I have is tons of backgrounds, non-Sith War posts & emails, and my twisted imagination. All other characters' sites are listed under the RASSM heading as well.

#### .Significant Rebellion: This is the "race" of sig characters of mine, based upon (and encouraged by) online pal (with its own .sig) Darth Gumby.

#### Artie: The character originally appeared on the IRC chat room #weirdal, but I don't go there anymore. RASSM allowed it a second chance at "life". While this character has never appeared in an official online Sith War, I *have* used it in an expanded Sith War story which hasn't been posted online.

#### Alt.Fan.Jigglypuff: Three others and I "rediscovered" this newsgroup briefly and I set up a small site for us. I actually deleted it for a time and then decided to put it back up.


< RANDOM > Everything else.

Some have blogs and some have not.


#### Aimeitis: Companion to the weblog, I keep information and links to the research I've done into my condition, Neuroleptic-Induced Movement Disorder.

#### Blugger: Companion to the weblog. I keep getting distracted from finishing this, but the hits just keep on comin'.


 Active Weblogs

< BLOGS > Weblogs & Accompanying Sites

Listed under various headings. (Originally the Prism Pages before Blogging as a whole took off.)

#### RHBlog: My personal (and third) blog. Semi-active.

#### Aimeitis Blog: What started out as a webpage became my first blog, which keeps track of my medical condition. I purchased additional webspace for this blog to keep other information before Blogger was bought by Google. I have no idea if I'll keep this up and I certainly don't know if I'll continue to use the extra space, especially after being told erroneously that it wouldn't be available after the buyout. Currently dormant.

#### Bluggers' Blog: This is a parody site of Blogger's original layout and was created during a time when many people (including Blogger) was plagued with buggy coding. This blog (at Blogspot) site (at FTC-I) is a joke (not to mention VERY slow-coming), and I am still a happy Blogger customer whether Pyra or Google owns it.

#### Jump-DMC Blog: Intended to be a spot for the aforementioned fanfic and any other "fits" of related-writings.


 Collaborative Projects

< LINKS > Collaborations & Professional Sites

Websites I've coded and/or participated in the creation of.

#### HABS-HAER.Com: This is my Father's website. I coded it.


 INactive Projects

#### Ian McDiarmid Large List of Links Blog: Update blog for website of the same name (see below).

#### Fun With Uriel's Machine*: A new hobby! Ties into What The Indigo in that there are some "New Agey" stuff involved, but mostly I'm interested in the math and science of it.


 Dead Concepts

< TRASHED but not CACHED > Failed Stuff: My Website Graveyard

Blogs & websites that never could take off for one reason or another.

#### D.O.R.K. Defenders of Rubén the Keyboardist: My first website collaboration. Intended to be a positive fansite for "Weird Al" Yankovic's keyboardist Rubén Valtierra, the acronym was based upon an actual gag played upon him at a concert. Despite the good intentions, it wasn't well received, so it was taken down out of respect for everyone involved.

#### Stupid Popular Net Addictions: Blog intended to be a research/link compedium of stupid stuff I later learned were called "memes" in the blog world. No need for me to do this now as dozens of better (and more obsessed) bloggers have done this *for* me/us. It was my *second* blog.

#### K-PAX Observations: Blog intended to be for news & rants written in the style of prot from K-PAX, also I liked the url.

#### Under the Dogwood Tree: Blog intended to be notes based upon me doing a "read the Bible in one year" schedule. Never started.

#### Can You Picture That?: Blog intended to be an off-shoot of rhblog for movie reviews.

#### Violet Skies: Blog intended to be an off-shoot of rhblog for music reviews.

#### Palpatine's Palace: Website intended to be a collaboration between myself and a member of AllAboutIan. Worked on images and layout (looked nice) but not beyond.

#### Snape Shots: Was going to be Professor Snape fanart site, including my list of fav Harry Potter fanartists. Never started.

#### Wizards 4 Jesus: Meant to be my research portal relating to the Indigo Children and other New Age stuff. Never took off. URL deleted.
