Paul Riley's Home on the World Wide Web

Welcome! This website was originally launched in January 2017 as an idealistic act of building community. It lay dormant for years until 2019, when I used it to host a modern blog. Then in 2024, I began major renovations. I'm still in the process of creating a habitable space, but I'm glad that you're visiting. Maybe you can help me out?

I'm interested in merging the two versions of the Internet that I love: the barebones aesthetic of the late '90s with the convenience and multiple media formats of the modern era. The best of both worlds. What can I say, you can take a boy out of the Geocities, but you can't take the Geocities out of the boy.

If I weren't so concerned with respecting artists and copyright law, I'd insert a classic GIF of a man in a hard hat here to denote this website is under construction. (As if all websites aren't perpetually under construction? Life is mutability; we are all in flux.) I'm gonna continue getting this place in order. Oh, I almost forgot - this piece of mail came for you..
