and its not MySpace either, but It may be bigger than MySpace soon. Hehe. There's no web2, no `social` interaction and no goddam poking. Now get off my lawn you damn kids!
Purplicity: established before Facebook, but less interesting.
Purplicity Supports Wikileaks - You Should Too
"The first duty of the press is to obtain the earliest and most correct intelligence of the events of the time, and instantly, by disclosing them, to make them the common property of the nation. The statesman collects his information secretly and by secret means; he keeps back even the current intelligence of the day with ludicrous precautions The Press lives by disclosures For us, with whom publicity and truth are the air and light of existence, there can be no greater disgrace than to recoil from the frank and accurate disclosure of facts as they are. We are bound to tell the truth as we find it, without fear of consequences -- to lend no convenient shelter to acts of injustice or oppression, but to consign them at once to the judgement of the world."
— Robert Lowe, editorial, London Times, 1851.

Completed adding 2005. Check out the Rae St 70s party - type 'shonly 70s' into the search thingy.

More photos added, but they're in a bit of a state. Purplicity will be going through them year by year, fixing things, adding new stuff and filling the gaps. The entire of 2001 seems to be missing. If you've seen my 2001 anywhere - you know, hanging out on street corners, lying in gutters, selling fake watches - please contact me. Also fixed the comment system so it's easier to use.

Finished adding 2007

This 3rd incarnation of purplicity is using a heavily modified version of Gallery 3. Many thanks to those guys and girls. So far 2008 to 2010 has been uploaded and earlier stuff is going up as this is typed.

Hell is having to re-build your website every 2 or 3 years and learn some newfangled php/cms/rad framework system, because whatever you have now is not supported; what's available isn't exactly right; and writing a photo gallery app yourself... well I'd rather be down the pub.
Mainly, no one ever looks at this website, but every now and then I am surprised by some idiot that has. So in the interest of posterity, continuity and helping me remember stuff, this website will continue to drag its sorry self along through the dark, sad, boring parts of cyberspace...
