I’ve recently registered the domain (which used to belong to my dad, but which had lapsed):

stainthorp.com

For the time being, I’m just using it to redirect to my main domain:

paulstainthorp.com

…though I might have other plans for it in the future. Looking around the web, there are a surprising number of Stainthorp (and Stainthorpe) themed web domains, including (disclaimer: none of these have anything to do with me… though some of them are—or may be—relatives…):

Old site, new site

I’ve decided to start maintaining again my personal website, mainly as a register of all the little bits of work I get involved in. This does mean it might not always make fascinating reading (unless you’re transfixed by digital library management and development…), but at least I’ll have a permanent record of things to refer back to.

My original website was a series of plain HTML documents; now instead of maintaining my own installation of WordPress I’m using the University of Lincoln’s (i.e. my employer’s) WordPress MU / BuddyPress server at blogs.lincoln.ac.uk, but mapped to my own domain. This way I can participate in the social-networking features of BuddyPress, while still maintaining my own, personal online presence outside the University.
