I’ve always hated my crummy domain name. It’s actually a subdomain, hence the annoying dot between David and Pye that’s been confusing and throwing people off for 5 years. The clunky and hard-to-remember david.pye.com has gone the way of the dodo, and you’re now loving life at:
I have redirects in place at the old site that should automatically send you here, but that site will close down in a few months – so update your bookmarks!
I’ll also archive the old, grey site somewhere in the background too. But from now on, the blog will only be updated here at the new site. Why the change? I accidentally let davepye.com expire last month, and it was quickly snapped up by a woman in Florida whose husband shares my name. I emailed her in a panic and pleaded with her to give it back to me. I fully expected her to ask me for an extortionate, cyber-squatter sort of amount for it’s return, but she took pity on me and sold it back for the $20 she’d spent to register it. Thank you, Kimberly Pye. You’re a doll.
Anyhew, I took it as a sign, bit the bullet and moved everything over to the new domain last night. I hope you enjoy it, and I know it’ll be easier to remember. My email will be changing accordingly too, from david@pye.com to dave@davepye.com – so please update that info as well.
I hate moving day. Welcome to the new digs.

- The ‘david.pye.com’ Memorial And Other Changes. Over 5 years ago I started my first website – david.pye.com – and it grew into a silly little exercise that became quite popular amongst my friends. When I switched to the blog format, and changed my domain name, many of you were upset – having grown used to the larger galleries, the accompanying jokes [...]...
- Blogging in Boston. My website, david.pye.com, has been a labor of love for the past 5 years and a great way to keep in touch with those that give a budgie’s hindquarters.

There’s also http://www.davidpye.com. Some dude from Australia. Your’s is better.
AND he offers free software. What have I ever offered anyone on here? I guess the opportunity to publicly mock me, which is worth something, I suppose.
And you can’t even bloody spell… you are semi-bloody illiterate.
