LOTS of new pictures and backgrounds added to the homepage today!
Hopefully this will help you feel like the same picture or background doesn't come up repeatedly.
Look to see more textures, and, hopefully some of your own panoramic pictures!
(thanks to those who uploaded them to me!)
By the way, here are the latest stats on BestHomepageEver.
-- HITS -- January 2008 to January 2011
January 25, 2011
I must apologize to my loyal homepage users, as I've been consumed by my latest project, my new personal business,
EasyETA. It's been an education experience to say the least! A lot of the time consumption and work is in the past,
and now I can
finally put a lot of my time and effort back in to Best Homepage Ever.
To see my new project, OR if you plan on traveling to Australia, then you can obtain an Australian Visa through EasyETA.
For those of you who uploaded pictures and ideas to me in the last few weeks, I thank you so much and promise I'll have
your pictures and ideas implemented into BHE in the coming weeks.
Thanks and take care.
June 25, 2010
In the last 18 days since my last update, I've continued to add new pictures and backgrounds.
BHE is now displayed in over 3,000 different combinations of ways, each different everytime you
load or revert back to the page. This number of course will continue to climb.
In other news, I've consolidated the computers and technology sections and repositioned newegg to
the shopping category, where I think it belongs.
The new section that came out of that unused area is the new "Deal of the Day" or "Daily Deals" section,
where you'll find websites that offer a single product on sale each day. Some of them will be local
and some national, depending on which site you choose.
That's it for now.
Enjoy the summer everyone!
June 7, 2010
Along with a new motto, today I'm proud to launch what so many of you were requesting and waiting for.
Now, every time you load up BestHomepageEver, both the background and front image change.
With 70+ pictures and 27 backgrounds loaded, there are over 2,000 combinations of looks for your homepage.
Trust me, this is only the beginning. Rather than updating the page once a week, I'm simply going to add to the collection
of panoramic photos and backgrounds on a non-stop basis to give thousands of looks to the homepage over time.
In addition to that,
I've fixed a couple of loose links. Most notably, new users can now easily set BestHomepageEver to be their homepage
by clicking on the link near the top-left (or here). This is compatible with all browsers except Google Chrome.
(hopefully that will come in time).
Lastly, the date and time listed in the far top-right of BHE, which is clickable by the way, will now automatically
remind you of national and worldwide holidays.
I hope you enjoy the improvements. More are on the way and if you have any suggestions or wish to report a
bug, please email me. Thanks!

2,000,000th hit on BHE today. Still in the minor leagues, but am very happy with the loyalty of people
who use this website as their homepage after all these years. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
..........................Continue to spread the word!
It was quite a bit faster reaching the second millionth click milestone (7 months, 2 weeks) compared to the first millionth,
which took 9 years!!
I thank you all and do appreciate it! I still do NOT advertise and respect a good, simple homepage!
For math people (including myself:), here is an updated 2 year chart of clicks per month (January 2008 - January 2010)
I remember looking at 12,181 hits per month and being shocked! hahhaha:)
Take care everyone!

February 10, 2010
Well, today I've simplified the homepage even further:
-- Removed StatCounter, which shows # of hits (although I am still keeping track')
-- Added Submit-a-Pic page so anyone can upload pictures directly to me which will appear on BHE.
-- Added Submit-a-Link page to take suggestions on improved links for the site.
-- Edited Travel Section
-- Added N.Y. and L.A. Times to replace MSN news
-- Edited Music,Food,Art section so you can search Lyrics as well as Bands.
November 4, 2009
I've added several new links to "The Bored Room" which I think might occupy some time.
Some links are funny, some are random, but either way they're entertaining.
My next project will be updating JustinCarver.com as it's been about 2 years since I've made any
major updates to the website.
A quick note: I've constantly been receiving ideas and comments about BHE.. keep them coming!
I enjoy hearing from you all..
Tell your friends and family about the homepage!!
Thanks,
Justin
August 11, 2009
Important: I've removed Google as one of the top 3 links above the search bar, and replaced it with Bing.
This is for 2 reasons -- First, the search bar defaults to Google, and second....
You can always simply hit <ENTER> upon loading BestHomepageEver to load Google.
Constantly improving!
August 3rd, 2009
Well, it's been about a week already, but BHE reached the 1 million hit milestone!
Very exciting indeed:) Well, actually it's just a number.. but I'm happy:)
FYI: That counter began in April 2006,
.....6 years into the website's life
(Download Monthly Stats here.)
I also just wanted to write and thank all of those who have written me from around the country
with suggestions on links. Thanks to you guys, the site is constantly improving!
Hope everyone is having a great summer!!!!
February 18, 2009
Thanks to a good suggestion from a user, I've made a very slight, but highly effective change to the page.
Now, when you load up BestHomepageEver, your cursor should default to the Google search box.
This is particularly useful for searching the web immediately without using your mouse... and, on a side note,
if you just hit ENTER when pulling up BHE, you are redirected to google.
Thanks to Scott for that.
Also, I've added a language translator link to the top right portion of the page. It may or may not stay there,
as the quicklinks section has traditionally been reserved for the most clicked links on the page,
but many thanks to Don for the suggestion.
I think a translation link of some sort is here to stay.
Have a great day and keep the ideas flowing!
September 29, 2008
300,000 hits!
I never would have imagined when I created BestHomepageEver over 8 years ago
that people from
all around the world would one day be using the page and writing me about it.
In the last couple of months, I've spoken to quite a few of you who are new to the page and
I welcome you!!
Each week, each month, its popularity and community base grows to new records and I
thank you again for your continued support and word-of-mouth advertising!
If any of you have suggestions for the homepage, please don't hesitate to write me with ideas,
link suggestions, etc. as I will do my best to make it suitable as your homepage along with the rest of us.
When I used to have my email address posted on the page, I got spammed like crazy,
so if you just click on my name at the bottom, you can find my contact info on that page.
This month, I've done some re-arranging to help give Wikipedia some more attention, seeing as
it's become one of the most widely-used pages on the Internet.
Anyway, everybody take care and continue to enjoy the site! I can't thank you enough if you've
been helping spread the word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 19, 2008
This month, I've made some major advancements for Best Homepage Ever.
First, I've completely removed the Quicklinks box, which stood front-and-center
on the page for about 6 years.
I've replaced the box with what I think is even better - Simple pictures that link to
Maps, Directions, Weather, and a personal calendar (More to come?)
By removing the quicklinks box, I've once again shortened the page dramatically,
which is a constant goal of mine to help you users see everything at once.
You may also notice I've removed the BLOG button and replaced it at the bottom
with a simple link.
May 13, 2008
Here are the latest numbers to demonstrate the continued growth of BestHomepageEver.
April was the great month EVER and, with a record 5,000 hits in the first week of May,
I have no doubt May will be even better. Thanks again!!
May 5, 2008
I have added world news to the right part of the page, courtesy of BBC
and have updated a few of the main links at the bottom.
Different games have been added, such as LOGD (which, for anybody who played LORD about 15 years ago would appreciate),
Lemonade Stand (courtesy of Kevin Smosky), and Tetris, courtesy of whoever invented that for Nintendo.
Have a great '08 all!!
April 1, 2008
It's been over a year since I've made a regular update to the blog page. I'll keep it simple!
I've added a link that I hope you all at least check out! Kiva, which is a site
where you loan money to people in ANY amount which could potentially change
somebody's life directly... Just check out the site and donate if you can!
$10, $50, whatever.
You get repaid, but the loan helps people start up a business in a 3rd world country!!
In short, a lot of the updates that I've made in the last year have been aesthetic.
I've made improvements on the background from old patterned looks to more smooth
and "modern" backdrops. I hope you've noticed:)
Also, I've tried to keep the theme simple - EASY & USEFUL!
I'm happy to report that page hits are up 300% (March '08 hits vs. March '07 hits)
and the site continues to
grow thanks to your loyalty!
Have a great Spring and I promise it won't be another year before I make the next update!
--Justin--
March 3, 2007
Welcome to the new year! I've consolidated the page as much as possible and,
for the most part,
have
stuck with the same links within the main links section.
The winter tradition for BHE has been a snow report, now found in the top right of the page.
This year, I found SkiReport.com to be the best source for all mountains reports...
Besides that, you may see some snow on the page from time to time, simply for effects.
Because I started receiving mass amounts of spam in my hotmail inbox, I had to remove
the feedback section. I can't handle the mass amounts of e-mail in my personal
inbox on a daily basis.. so thanks to whichever company started doing that!
Anyway, I wish you all a great 2007. Happy Birthday to my Dad Al,who turned 60 on Feb.4,
and who's been a long time supporter of BestHomepageEver.
Until next time...
Justin
December 4, 2006
Today I made an a whole slew of improvements to the homepage.
First,
the news/sports scores table was completely replaced with a more efficient
feed from two reputable sites - Yahoo & CBS Sportsline.
The finance feed offers up-to-date quotes on the S&P 500, Nasdaq Composite,
the price of Gold, and the price of Oil, as traded on the various exchanges.
Plus, you can simply enter a ticker to get a quick quote.
In addition, all major sports scores are now fed directly to the homepage and can
easily be viewed by scrolling through the various tabs (NCAA football, NBA, etc.)
I also did some housekeeping once again in an attempt to further shrink the page so that it
can be scrolled and accessed quicker.
..Just another couple of reasons why BestHomepageEver continues
to be the simplest,
most useful portal for all of your Internet needs.
October 19, 2006
So, I've updated the Travel section with a few more useful links.
In addition, the live news section is up and running, even though it's still in
BETA mode at this point. My goal is to have more RSS live feeds on the
site by year-end. This would allow live stock quotes, news, scores, etc.
Best Homepage Ever has just passed over 20,000 hits!!!
Thank you and PLEASE continue to spread the word!!
September 9, 2006
It's been a while since my last update due to the fact that I had computer
trouble. Luckily,
everything is back and I'm ready to continue to improve
on the site's content and look.
The next project, which should be complete by the end of the month,
is live RSS feeds. These feeds are what allow
live streaming news and sports scores!
So look for those in the very near future.
June 7, 2006
I've learned how to design backgrounds for webpages! So here's the result.
Simple, colorful designs that are meant to make the homepage look its best.
May 31, 2006
June is here. Summer is around the corner! And in celebration, I've
provided a download section, Best Downloads Ever, check it out here.
May 30, 2006
Time for another statistics update on BestHomepageEver.
fig.1 This graph denotes the total number of requests, or clicks,
on a monthly basis since May '05.
The site is consistently getting more and more hits each month,
with hits this month from 4 different countries and 10 different US states.
California
Oregon
Georgia
Virginia
Iowa
New Jersey
Texas
Maryland
Florida

This week's work was done in the "background" of BHE. I manually went
through all the code, which isn't exactly a fun task by the way,
and shortened it. This will continue to allow quick load
times and, for those of you who use Netscape as a browser,
a better look.
For those of you who don't write code, which is nearly everyone..:) ,
each browser, whether it be Firefox, Netscape, or I.E., each read
code differently. So, it can be a bit of a headache trying to make sure
all 3 read it correctly.
Well, now they do. So enjoy now and thank me later.
May 1, 2006
Just a quick update.
There have been a couple link changes and one fix.
For the most part, the site is running smoothly, opening faster, and looks better.
I am constantly looking for new, usable links for you all so if you have any ideas
or link requests, please feel free to let me know.
Happy May Day:)
April 24, 2006
For better or worse, I've completely wiped out and redone BestHomepageEver. It had to be done.
I am learning how to design websites using Flash, Photoshop, Fireworks, Dreamweaver,
and several other pieces of software to help enhance and fine-tune the site. Thanks, Darin.
Although the site is new, I've stuck to the simple, accessible design that
has made it so easy to use in the past.In doing so, I wish to hear your comments,
so please let me know your opinion as to what you
would like to see either changed or added to the site.The good news is that now that the site has been simplified with brand new coding,
it's able to be updated and enhanced much easier and more efficiently. However, this is a test.
My ultimate goal for BHE is usability. I will be incorporating some new and exciting changes to the site in the next few months,
so enjoy the site and drop me an e-mail in the comments section here if you have any suggestionst.

Well, I'm back from my trip to Australia and New Zealand. So for those of you who were sick of
the same background and picture, I assure you you weren't alone. I have about 650 pictures to sort
through to make the homepage look better than ever in the coming months.
Also, Joe and I's collaborative project, BMCE or BestMediaCollectionEver
is merging into something bigger and better. However, the details, unfortunately,
I can't disclose yet. However, I will keep you updated when the time comes.
For those of you I met on the road in Australia & New Zealand, thanks for checking out
my site. Although it may or may not be as useful for non-US citizens, keep in touch and
perhaps I can create a U.K and Australia version down the road.
January 23, 2006
I'm thrilled to announce that traffic is at an all-time high in January (and the month's not even over!).
More of you are using BestHomepageEver than ever! and I thank you for that....
Also, I am about 75% done in completing my collaborative project - BestMediaCollectionEver.
Feel free to take a sneak peak! However, I will be going overseas for the month of February,
so look for a final product around April 1, 2006.
BestMediaCollectionEver will be a close-ended, private community of people who wish to have access
to music, movies, T.V. shows, and share pictures with friends.
I will keep you all posted as we make progress into the Spring.. Check out the site for more details.
Have a wonderful rest of January and I will return for an update in mid-March, hopefully with some fresh new ideas.
In the meantime, Joe Bonage will be taking over the reigns of BestHomepageEver for February. Thanks Joe!
See you all soon, -Justin.
December 30, 2005
2006!!
I've really worked at trying to make this site better each week, so I hope you enjoy the changes.
Each year the improvements and fine-tuning of BestHomepageEver are more and more important and useful, so I look forward
to yet another year of great things to come.
I've added some links here and there and have added easy-access arrows to automatically navigate to both the top and bottom
portions of the page. In addition, I've added the time/date at the top left and eliminated the need for newcomers to
be referenced to another page to set BHE as their homepage. These small changes are mostly irrelevant to the average user,
but, in all, they are making the site easier to use and more resourceful.
2006 will be the year for constant content improvements. For the past few months, I've been establishing what I think
is the foundation for the basic layout and design of the site. Now I plan on focusing on improving the core
of the site and providing the links that YOU want and use. 2006 will be an important year for BestHomepageEver,
and I thank you for continuing to use and enjoy the site.
December 8, 2005
Substantial improvements have been made to the Quicklinks and Main Links sections:
December 1, 2005
Aah, one of my favorite months of the year! December.
For us snowboarders and skiiers who use the page, I have once again added a Snow Report.
I wish all of you a great holiday season and I look forward to starting yet another year,
The 6th year for BestHomepageEver!
November 8, 2005
I've consolidated the page quite a bit this month (about 35%), slowly phasing out the old "Sites of the Month."
I will be working on a way to make a list of useful sites in the future, but for now I think its best to have a smaller homepage.
I've added an encyclopedia link to the Second Line so that we can all look up useful info on just about everything in just one click.
October 12, 2005
As mentioned in the frontpage news, the name "BestHomepageEver.com" will be phased out
in the coming weeks and will be the official motto of the homepage instead. The actual transition will
go unnoticed for many of you as it will be transferred to a different server over night.
At that point, Besthomepageever.com will simply forward you to ThePerfectHomepage.com automatically.
For now, just continue to enjoy the site and many more improvements are on the way!
October 1, 2005
I'm excited to start October. Progress is continuously being made
that I think will help propel BHE to the next level.
During the next 4 weeks, I will be building "The Backyard,"
which will be a portal to all kinds of multimedia, where people
can pay a flat fee to have remote access 24/7.
More details will come in the next few weeks.
This graph, which represents how many total requests the server makes on a monthly basis,
demonstrates that September was the most popular month EVER for BHE.
The number of unique computers that accessed the site was over 70!
For now, continue to enjoy the site.
Over the last few days I've taught myself Dreamweaver, which is a software program to enhance the layout Take notice of some of the following changes: Some of these improvements have given me more ideas to work on. I still need a logo however. As I was gone for most of the month of August, my progress was limited. However, a server is currently The BestHomePageEver family of websites has also been expanded to incorporate I've entered into a partnership to take this website to the next level. In addition, I am in the works of improving the overall appearance and feel of the page, For all of you who use this page, I thank you. I hope you continue to use it and enjoy it; Please help me spread the word. Also, feel free to e-mail me with suggestions or comments Wow, its been a year since I've even touched this page. However, the reason is that the news is now One major update to speak of, however, is the community size of the homepage. The number of people Throughout the last 5 years, I've tried to stick to my original plan: simplicity!
March Madness is around the corner, so I thought I'd link to ESPN's colllege BB pages. Changes: New background. New picture. New picture caption. New links to RottenTomatoes.com & IBD.
2003 has been a remarkable year for the page, as it's undergone many significant
(((For those who haven't used this homepage since 2002))) I hope to continue to provide a banner-free, useful environment
By the way, feel free to submit pictures that you feel would look good on YOUR homepage.
Quite a few updates this month. I'm still trying to improve on the new additions from September.
All of these links were/are excellent sources for digital images, but were simply out-dated on this site.
A couple new links were added and moved, which I feel has improved the overall content of the page.
For those who have cable modem broadband Internet access and are looking to get rid of those
September 13, 2005
of webpages. In doing so, major improvements have been made to both the links section and the
ergonomics of the page itself. Most notably, the page is smaller and more accessible.
September 1, 2005
being worked on to host the site. And, in addition, I've accumulated numerous unique backgrounds
to be used for the next 6 months. Which, by the way, are some of the best to date.
5 other websites, re-directing into ONE, including:
August 1, 2005
By 2006, BHE will have its own dedicated server, increasing the speed and reliability
of the site. I will also start advertising the site itself with my new motto:
Besthomepageever - "THE PERFECT HOMEPAGE"
all the while keeping it simple with the links that you want. No matter what, there will never
be any form of advertising - no banners, no pop-ups, no advertisements!
I will continue to enhance the functionality, simplicity, and appearance of the BestHomepageEver,
as I always have and always will.
(Justin@www.besthomepageever.com)

Also, as you may know, I post new photos/paintings each month on the homepage,
So if you'd like to display or show off your photography, contact me and you can have your artwork displayed.

May 21, 2005
updated on the homepage itself and I've been able to fine-tune everything enough to where major
updates aren't necessary.
using the homepage on a steady to regular basis has roughly doubled each year - now standing at over 30 people!
Unfortunately, I don't know who you all are, but I'm glad you continue to visit!
Also, its important for me, at least, to have a homepage that loads fast and is easy to navigate.
Anyway, I hope you continue to enjoy the website and I'll update again sometime in the future.
Thanks and enjoy the site!
Don't forget that weather reports are posted in the top-right corner, for all your local/national weather needs.
I hope you all continue to like the updates and aesthetic changes being made to the site.
Remember, comments are always appreciated. Feel free to e-mail me anytime: carverjustin@hotmail.com
Thanks, and have a good March '04
changes, most notably a relocation. And, in turn, the traffic has more than quintupled.
Plus, I feel as though the page has become more and more useful throughout the year,
thanks to the
help of your comments/requests.
Every year around the Christmas-New Year holiday season,
I try to give the page a new "look." This year is no different.
especially geared toward people who value simplicity. So for all those who use it,
have a great 2004 and enjoy the site!
Mail to: carverjustin@hotmail.com ... ... [update] This month's picture is the La Jolla coast.
October 22, 2003
First, the Digital Artists & Photography section has been removed and replaced by
a new section that will help un-clutter the rest of the page and add 3-5 more useful links.
images in the future:
"Out with the old, in with the new" is what I like to say. I felt as though the links were somewhat
dead and ready for an upgrade.
In addition, a new background has been added, as well as a new picture from Newberry Caldera in Oregon.
pesky "Messenger Service" pop-ups, here is a simple way to get rid of them permanently.
Click here and follow the 3 simple instructions. It literally only takes 1 minute and it saves you the hassle of having to close out a
bunch of pop-ups everytime you sit down at your computer.
September 18, 2003
Lots of pictures will be available soon from Lake Powell, Las Vegas, and San Diego.
I was shocked to see the "hosting results" page which reports statistics on the homepage.
Here are a couple of highlights:
More updates are coming, as I am now paying to maintain the site.
My philosophy while maintaining this site is to keep it as simple and useful as possible.
If you have any further suggestions, ideas, comments, criticisms, or anything at all regarding this site,
please e-mail me at: Justin@BestHomepageEver.com
For those of you who do not know how to switch your homepage, follow these 3 simple steps:
This website is moving soon. I will be copying the site over to another URL by the weekend. A new (and hopefully more improved) look will come shortly. Enjoy. (p.s. the latest title picture is of Pacific Beach, CA.)
More pictures have been added to the pictures page; Main picture changed.. I kind of want a dog.. Pearl Jam show was awesome, wish I had pictures.. fixed a link, but music section is a disaster and out of date.. Gotta do something about that.. anyway, those are some thoughts..
I'm constantly trying to make this website more useful for all of us who use it (7-9+ people or so). So if there's a website that you regularly visit that you'd like posted on here, I can easily find a place for it. Please e-mail me any requests that you have.
This week I've finally figured out how to post pictures on the site, so if you check out the pictures page, you'll find a few of the initial categories (trips & places) I've taken pictures. There will be more to come, as I have about 300 pictures that are probably worth posting - that I will eventually get to (assuming I have no limit on this server). Either way, I think it brings life to the site. If you use this homepage and you're reading this, eventually you'll find yourself in some of those pictures.
Anyway, enjoy the improvements; and like I said, please feel free to e-mail me any requests or comments. carverjustin@hotmail.com - Thanks!
Second of two finalists for new background (2003). "Sandy-Black Marble" If you have an opinion on one of the two, e-mail me or tell me. I might actually introduce a third background as well. If not soon, then definitely for the 2004 changeover.
Well, after about an hour of time spent looking for different backgrounds for the webpage, I came across two that I thought were very worthy of my "best homepage ever." The first which I call "green webs" is drastic, but extremely well done. The second is more settle, but also one of my favorites. This, will come in April.
As far as news goes, I completely wiped out the gaming links and replaced it with the most popular banks in the U.S. so that people can quickly link to their bank for any online transactions.
For any of you who currently don't bank online, this will be readily available and more accessible. I highly recommend online banking, as it saves a crap load of paper (I live in Eugene, after all. Recycling has become a part of my life..:)
No, just kidding, but everybody should at least recycle about 1/4 of the crap they consume, in my opinion. Well, hope all who use this homepage enjoy the new background. PLEASE!, e-mail me with your comments after I release the second background, as I will pick the more popular of the two..
Nothing major; although the Angels won the world series!! I guess that's major. I knew it!! Look below..:)
Here you go, Kris. Finally made the update from over a year ago. The background is a bit different..., and I am looking for a new one to replace both. Go ducks tomorrow! Big game against UCLA! Also, right now I'm sayin' that the Angels are going to win the world series..., so when I'm right in two weeks, my prediction was set in writing. Cool, well, hopefully everybody enjoys the changes.. some of which definitely needed it..:) ..J
July 9, 2001I made a few new changes this month.. First off, and most obvious, I changed the background. If it grows on me, I'll keep it, otherwise I may change it back at the end of the summer. Anyway, I updated 'the links' and I strongly recommend checking out Half.com- Cheap prices on a lot of new and used products such as DVD's, VHS, CD's, and other miscellaneous stuff.
Other than that, hopefully you all will enjoy the summer. Oh, and also, Napster sucks now because they've been sued by several different companies and bands, so check out Aimster.com, which is a great replacement..! Not only can you pick up music, but other misc. files are available too.. Anyway, take it easy.. cya next month..jC
Two additions: New passport sign-in for MSN/Hotmail users, and a new background for the summer. Enjoy! More to come this summer
Got rid of the banner at the bottom until I can find something worthwhile to replace it (Since Iexchange went under). I'm going to leave the investing page up, but it won't be updated often. (probably once a quarter).
Can't wait for the summer. It should be a fun one for many of us. Hopefully LBDAS will go on tour soon. Anyway, gotta go to bed now. -good night
Today, I added the investing page. However, I'm only starting out with 3 stocks while we wait and hope for a bull market. Hopefully, the Fed will once again lower interest rates, and the HK market will see some improvements over the next month. Either way, the new page is up.
Throughout this and next week, I will be watching and tracking new stocks as well as trying to improve upon this very simple page. Eventually, you will be able to click on the companies to see MSN graphs and charts, along with short reports. But until then, let's just track $100,000 and see where the future of the economy leads us.
P.S. For those of you who have noticed, Iexchange has completely shut down. No more Iexchange
March 11, 2001Changed a lot of out-of-date details on the page. Added new site of the month, fixed up that section, and added Movie listings near the top... Plus, Andrew, I finally switched to PGAtour.com to replace pga. I thought that might come in handy for Wallstreet. Also, check out Upaya's page linked in the music selection. That's about the only music update..
May be till late April for the next update. Spring Break!!
February 6, 2001Today I made the final touches on several aspects to the page.. As mentioned below, Wallstreetsports is new, so I replaced a few links to help easily get news on sports. Also, weather is now available (see top-right hand corner of page). I finally found a group of links I like (for February anyway).
Be sure to check out my Iexchange Portfolio,
and click on a couple reports. I plan on adding an investment page here as well. Enjoy.

January 15, 2001Off to a new year.. I've changed the appearance, pictures, chart colors, and several links. Age of Empires has been added as a new column. I am working on replacing some of the fewer used links with more useful ones. Especially "Quick Links" U-lane-O CU has been added, as well as Uoregon.edu (my school)
Today, I added a couple links and updated the Site of the month. Also, fixed a non-working link and made this page load faster. Once again, switched up a couple fonts..still trying to improve the looks one day at a time. Enjoy.
Made some improvements since last month. Actually removed a lot of (what I thought was) unnecessary stuff here and there. I updated as well as added several links & threw in easy access to several search engines. Watch for a few additional improvements very soon (e.g.SiteofTheMonth).
April 13, 2000Finally made some significant changes to the page this week. Added some more Phish & Bob Marley lyrics. I also dropped a couple seconds off the load time. Please feel free to drop me a comment and let me know what you think Enjoy.
Picked up some new backgrounds and I'm playing around with some of the new looks to VN HOME. I changed the backgrounds of my affiliate page and and still looking at some other alternatives for the pictures page. So look for some new and improved looks coming soon.
I just added several graphics from freegraphics.com and also updated several screwed up links.
Well, now the links section is totally revised into a table format. Plus, my Top 10 lists are complete and have made some changes to that. If you have any comments or ideas on some future additions, e-mail me at VirrjNutcase@yahoo.com .
I am working on some game reviews which will be available some time in the future. My website is brand new so bare with all the crap that doesn't work properly. If you have any suggestions, let me know. Thanks, and enjoy.
