Some readers have given me feedback, intermittently, that the URL to FmH is too convoluted for convenience. They’re probably using an unnecessarily complicated web address. Here’s a rundown of how to get here.

  • Most people probably use “http://world.std.com/~emg/blogger.html.”
  • My webserver, I just discovered, has a slightly simpler alias, so you can use “http://TheWorld.com/~emg/blogger.html.” Of course, uppercase is optional.
  • These expand to the mother of them all, “http://world.std.com/home/dacha/WWW/emg/public_html/blogger.html.” Not many takers, I’m guessing.
  • By far the easiest: “http://gelwan.com/blogger.html.” Has the advantage of portability too, if I ever change web host I’ll point the gelwan.com domain to my new site. I’m Eliot Gelwan, by the way.
  • Update: A reader wrote to let me know that “http://fmh.webhop.org” is will get you here too. Some kind soul set that up through the Dynamic DNS Network. I just created an account there and set up “http://fmh.webhop.net” to point here too. [thanks, Daniel]
  • I know I should get around to owning followmehere.com or something similar. Maybe some day [but don’t think that if you ‘squat’ at that domain you can ever ransom it to me for large sums of money (grin)]
