Site Changes and Updates
The www.ourtimelines.com site changes almost every day. We update the historical database and correct errors when we, or our visitors, find them. The list on this page is meant to inform you of changes and updates of larger import than these everyday maintenance level updates.
September 28th, 2001
www.ourtimelines.com has been moved from ICOM, an absolutely terrible quality bulk-hosting provider, to a dedicated server on the premises of one of our major sponsors. We now have complete control of the server, and I'm sure we'll be down a lot less as a direct result. We're sure happy not to be subject to ICOM's lackadaisical customer service any longer!
