About Phunsites

Welcome to phunsites.net!

So while driving by, you might be wondering what phunsites.net is about?

The site dates back to August 1999. At that time I guessed about a clever name.

As the initial motivation for this site was just to build something up and get some web design practice while having fun with it, I came up with the name of “funny websites”, ergo “funsites”. But since I’m actually kind of a geek and funsites seemed a bit boring, I changed it to the “l33tisch” name of phunsites. Obviously this makes people to remember it better. Honestly. ;-)

Well, after all these years, phunsites in it’s l33t spelling style may look awkward and childish. But then again, over time the site has become “me” and made up my web identicy. Besides that, all the stuff I do is still fun, interesting or even a bit weird.

Through the years, phunsites matured a lot – as I did – and has undergone zillions of changes and rewritings. Most notable was the change into a project and howto/faq driven blog around 2005/2006, so I could write down about some of the things I do.

I’m very happy about this development and it makes me also a bit proud that my efforts on this site are also helpful to other people.

Don’t miss The Internet Archive for a sneak peek for archived versions of phunsites.net.

And here’s a short vid of the changes over the last 10 years.
