How would you sum-up the content of your site?
The largest collection of politically related links anywhere on the web. It includes every thinkable political ideology, everything from nazism to anarchism.What kind of people do you think visit it?
People that are intrested in politics, obviously; quite a lot from universities, judging from the mail I get.Do you have any idea of the numbers of people visiting?
Roughly 7,700 during the last 6 months. During the first 2-3 months of that period I had very few visitors.What kind of feedback do you get from visitors?
Mostly positive, people thanking me for collection links to the extremists, but a few people accuse me of sympathizing with the people the writer despises the most... I've hence been called both anarchist and nazist.What motivates you to put in the hard work necessary to maintain a site like yours?
I'm interested in politics naturally, and if I stop collecting the links I wouldn't know where to look if I need information on some obscure politician.What have you learned from your experiences with the site?
That being a Webmaster is a lot harder than you think, if you want your site to be any good! And of course that you can't keep everyone happy.What other sites do you find interesting and/or like?
Lots and lots, such as http://www.cnn.com and http://www.flashback.seHow do you see Web sites developing over the next five years?
Most likely we'll see a lot of sites using more and more video and sounds -- and a lot of sites sticking with a more down-to-earth approach, with more text and less graphics.Do you have plans to develop your own site dramatically?
If I could find the time I would....
How would you sum-up the content of your site?
Thoughts, biographies, articles, and links on a variety of current taboos ranging from individual, gender, and group differences to population issues and other social and political taboos; all handled in a sophisticated yet provocative manner.What kind of people do you think visit it?
Largely well educated skeptical non-egalitarian types and other scholarly types interested in the relationship of biology to human affairs. A significant percentage seem to be degreed folks with an interested in human differences and psychology.Do you have any idea of the numbers of people visiting?
My experience with counters has not been good, but I would estimate about 500+ per month thus far. That should improve dramatically since the main search engine, Alta Vista, only picked it up two days ago and several other sites have recently recommended it.
(This has indeed increased to over 800 a month based on the latest counts - Ed.)What kind of feedback do you get from visitors?
Almost entirely positive and appreciative of the work I've done. One private scholarly behavioural mailing list recommended the site to its participants recently. Despite the somewhat "white" American orientation of the site, I've had very positive feedback from several Asian Americans and an inquiry from one Hispanic who wanted to do something similar in Spanish.What motivates you to put in the hard work necessary to maintain a site like yours?
I see it as a charitable enterprise, like a foundation, which gives time and talent instead of money in opposition to egalitarianism... although certainly some money is involved. As such, I devote it to causes that I consider absolutely important to the future of the West and the world. These include recognition of human group differences in social and political matters; rejection of the very idea of any natural human "rights" (other than those created by power and/or agreement); the relationship between population, immigration, and environment, and the morality (and wisdom) of separation and partition of humanity into smaller more self-interested groups (ie. opposition to all "values" related to the multi-cultural state).What have you learned from your experiences with the site?
Plan carefully, generate a standard look and feel for the pages, and use good site development tools to maintain it. Quality is key. Always check for spelling errors and never post new stuff until thoroughly proofed. You can be fairly radical, yet respected, if you are careful to maintain an overall aura of high quality. One scientist recently told another scholar via E-mail (who relayed by the latter to me) that he thought my site was a little "racist" but that he really liked it. The key to presenting socially difficult material is to maintain a standard that doesn't overstep that boundary. One way to increase interest in your site is to become involved in a current controversy where your site address gets mentioned in newspaper articles, by newsgroups, and by other sites.What other sites do you find interesting and/or like?
Upstream, AR, Pioneer Fund, Third Way, HBES, Atlantic Monthly, Africa 2000, BNP, Arthur Hu, American Civil Rights Review.How do you see Web sites developing over the next five years?
As the major source of non-PeeCee information! In fact, I expect the freedom of expression inherent in the web to have repercussions in other media and force them to drop many of the PC standards that prevent them from addressing issues that real people are interested in. I expect more publications to publish web versions of their printed issues, as you have done, and I expect many more web-zines to enter the fray. Some net friends and I have a new one planned already for debut later this year.Do you have plans to develop your own site dramatically?
Yes, I have added about 30 files in the last month (now up to about 75) and have only addressed one of the five areas I hope to address in any detail yet.
