Whatsinawho?

Hi, and welcome to Whatsinaname9000. First, I would like to thank you to take time out of your horridly boring life to take a look at one of the most unique sites on the internet. I want to say that this is NOT a weblog, it just looks like a weblog because of the format i'm using. What is this site? It's difficult to explain. It’s a joke site, of sorts; whenever I hear something funny, see something funny, or make up something funny, I promise to you I’ll put it on here. It's updated by one of the eight writers around every two to three days, so check back often. Also, be sure to read several, as some posts are better than others, and check out the 'favorite posts' box in the upper-left corner of the main site. It also provides a chance for the readers to give something back. I'm ALWAYS open to suggestions, so don't hesitate to contact me through the contact page. And, if you think you're funny, you can even apply to be a writer. This site started out as joking around with friends about a website, but it's become much more.

So come here and laugh. And waste precious time.

If this is your first time here, check out the "favorite posts" section to the left of the main page to see some of the better stuff.

The site started as a xanga, one day when Alex got bored, but eventually he tought himself HTML, PHP, CSS, and Javascript, and expelled the conformity of xanga and created the site you see today. The body of the site is a blogging system called Wian9kBlog, which is loosely based on an old version of the MyBlog codebase.

To celebrate the end of his freshman year of high school, Alex switched from the traditional black & red layout to this new one. However, since a lot of people still liked the red one, you can access it here. Also, The Archives, which is the new name for the original xanga, can be accessed here.

To see an extended history of Wian9k, click here to view the one year anniversary post, which describes key moments in the site's history.

So what're you waiting for? Click here to go back to the main page!

Alex M, Lead Writer, Developer, Site God - The one and only original creator of the brilliant Whatsinaname9000. Alex started whatsinaname9000 as a simple one-page xanga site, and eventually came to teach himself HTML and make the greatest website ever devised. He writes most of the posts, and updates & maintains all of the HTML, PHP, CSS, and Javascript that run this site. He's a dedicated Mac user who HATES evil micro$oft. He's a Yankees fan, and a thinks Bush is a blithering idiot. He is quite possibly the greatest person you will ever come to encounter in your entire life. In terms of TV personalities, he's a cross between Chandler [Friends], Dr. Cox [Scrubs], and Michael [Joey]. Bow to his superior will!

Vivi(an) B, Writer - Isn't that a cute picture? Vivian, better known as Vivi, is a breath of sanity in an otherwise completely crazy writing staff. Although she's fourteen, she resembles a 10-year-old in personality, writing style, and grammar/mechanics. But we still love her. She has a retarted chihuahua, and also has an unhealthy obsession with Phantom of the Opera. Vivi equates her Phantom of the Opera Soundtrack to heroin. Doesn't she just wanna make you say, "Aww?"

Hwan K, Writer - A former die-hard Window$ user, Hwan was recently converted to the Mac way. He's in Alex's orchestra, and plays violin, because violin is cool. If you don't play violin, you'll never be as cool as him. Hwan is probably the most credible writer here, due to the fact that he's asian, and asians rock. And he's Korean, too...any site with a Korean writer kicks ass; it's an unwritten law.

Crisy M, Writer & Lead Graphics Artist - It's quite difficult to explain Crisy, because she's rather.......unique. She's one of the oddest people you'll meet, besides Alex himself. She's a photoshop whiz, and does a lot of graphics for the site. She is henceforth the Lead Graphics Artist, which is a wicked cool title. She's a crazy, mixed-up teenager living in a crazy, mixed-up world, trying to find her place in life. This description really has no value due to the fact that she really can't be explained with words. But you still wasted your time reading it. Loser.

Kevin K, Writer - After co-hosting the world-famous Boston video, Kevin's odd sense of down-to-earth-but-not-really humor became evident, and was hired out of need for some some no-nonsense stories here. He's on the Langley HS Wrestling team, but wants everyone to know that he's not gay. *snicker* His posts are usually about nothing, but comprehensible madness is what this site is all about. Kevin would like you to know that he had no control over the use of the above picture. Obviously.

RJ, Writer - RJ likes girls. A lot. A little too much sometimes. That's all you really need to know about him.

Lauren B, Writer (kind of) - Also known as blonde, dumb blonde, dirty blonde, and snowy, Lauren goes to school with Alex and attempts to put up with him in PE. She's critical of everything, escpecially asians. Her posts provide a more logical, productive, and, well, feminine humor, providing a girl's prospective on whatsinaname9000. Careful, she bites. (TV Personality Similarities: Rachel [Friends], Bridget [8 Simple Rules]...hehe)

Jin Y-P, Guy At The Bottom Of The About Page. - Also known as "Jinny" or "J-to-the-i-to-the-n-young," Jin has been with the site since the beginning. Although he's not around much in the text, he's been known to put in his two cents in the chatterbox, and works behind the scenes, providing feedback. He also goes to school with Alex, and is in his orchestra. Rarely is the question asked: why is Jin a writer? (TV Personality Similarities: ...umm, due to the lack of an actual personality in Jin Y-P, this is kinda hard.)
