IMPORTANT!: Thank you for visiting, but this site is now officially closed for a complete overhaul. It probably won't be open till early 2001, because work is stalled due to the dreaded 'O' Levels (which end in November). Just imagine the world of Dvarrin is lost in a mysterious fog...


   GEOCITIES: And while I am here, should anyone who can make a difference chance across this, I am deeply disappointed to say that since the Yahoo takeover, Geocities has gone from bad to worse. (Dvarrin v2.1 is going to be hosted at Crosswinds.) The hosting is slower, the changes made to the file managing system (in particular the geoguide - does one have to fill in the form everytime one wishes to activate a geoguide?) have made things far from "hassle-free".

   The issue I am most offended about, however, is the arbitrary changing of the URLs to www.geoguide.com/username. While this can seem very convenient to some, I liked the atmosphere the neighbourhood urls gave (there was a reason I chose Athens/Troy) and the closer neighbourly spirit within the neighbourhood itself. My suggestion is that Yahoo/Geocities could have made the shorter urls optional. Or at least provided an option to change it back.

   Thank you for listening.
