What to do next, on st0n1ck?

Stonick the Website is getting close to turning 30 years old. Initially the website was born and lived on the Cal Poly Pomona servers as my student account, in 1997.

Back then I had pictures, quotes, my events page (which was an early version of a blog page), links to websites I like, and a bunch of other random things. I spent a lot of time making updates all manually.

Then as I learned more database design and HTML along with Microsoft VB and ASP, I updated Stonick to be database driven. Around the same time I registered stonick.com. I had a few other domains too, greg.gs, stonick.net, but eventually let the other ones go.

I actually hosted Stonick the Website from my house. I had url pointers pointing stonick.com to my home server. I hosted it for years like that. Almost every page was database driven. It was easy to update. You could create an account and write your own events on the site. I posted thousands and thousands of pictures.

But as the family grew and my time split up with other priorities I stopped updating my web page as much. The second child being the real nail in the coffin.

Then my page, which was old technology by 2010 got hit with virus and it just became to hard to manage anymore. I finally took it down sometime in the 2010s. Which really just meant unplugging the computer it was on.

But then I saw some adds for Wix, I heard other people talk about using it, and I thought that maybe it's time again to resurrect Stonick again. So that's what I did. But for several years I say fairly dormant still, with not much content.

Today their isn't too much, definitely not like before. But I've started to add more content,and I think I'm in a place where I can start to add ecen more and make it extra fun-fun again. Let's see what happens.
