My Web Sites (full list, including the dead ones)
For historical reasons, my web site used to be subdivided into a Blue Site, which contained research-related stuff and photos of places I have lived in, and a Green Site, which contained other stuff and photos of places I have visited.
There is no longer any reason to keep them separate, and they are gradually being merged.
In August 2007, webspace4free.biz went pear-shaped, taking my web sites with it. I will not be caught like that again. Since then, both sites have appeared on two web hosts.
My first choice, 110mb.com, has been very stable.
I wish I could say the same for my backup host. In the period between August 2007 and June 2009, joolo.com, quotaless.com, newsit.es, aokhost.com, 987mb.com and freehost10.com all folded up or sold out. In June 2009, I moved my backup site to byethost22.com. They are reasonably good overall, but their ftp interface is wobbly at times.
The following "permanent domain names" also appear to be reasonably stable and should redirect to one or other of my current sites:
From http://www.smartdots.com/
http://www.pacvarley.eu.tc redirects to http://pacvarley.110mb.com/
http://www.petervarley.eu.tc redirects to http://pacvarley.byethost22.com/
I also have a blog at http://petervarley.wordpress.com. It is basically just a link back to my web site, but it also serves as a change list. From now on, when I add something new to my web site, I shall post an announcement on my blog.
There is also a page about me on the Microsoft Academic web site. Any mistakes are theirs, not mine.
I am also on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pacvarley.
Yahoo frequently refuses to accept messages sent by users of UK2.NET. As far as I can ascertain, this is a matter of policy, not a bug.
My personal e-mail account used to be with UK2.NET, and Yahoo's stupid action (one of many) displeased me sufficiently that I intend to retaliate.
If your e-mail account is with Yahoo, be warned that I refuse to accept messages sent from Yahoo accounts. Any messages I receive from Yahoo e-mail addresses will be deleted unread.
I gather that they have now closed geocities.
I had some very old web sites on Yahoo, but I did not maintain them. It was no great loss to anyone when Yahoo deleted them.
That does not mean that everything on geocities was equally unimportant. Deleting geocities was another stupid action.
UK2 have gone pear-shaped.
Until further notice, I can only be reached via my university e-mail address (as shown in the image below), not via my UK2 e-mail address. This does not mean that Yahoo are reprieved.
