The 9-1-1 site marked it's 14th year anniversary
January
6th, 2009. I would
like to take a moment to thank all of the visitors and
supporters of the 9-1-1. Who would have ever
thought that a single page 14 years ago would have
grown to the site you are visiting at this moment. If
you wonder why sometimes pieces of the 9-1-1 seem to
take a while to get up to speed, the reason is simple, I
design and maintain the 9-1-1 by myself. The site has
grown to somewhere around 375+ sections with 20,000+
links these days. It
takes a lot of work to just maintain what has already
been in place, so new sections do take a bit of time to
bring onboard. Remember,
the
9-1-1 site is under
permanent renovation or overhaul year round as you will soon
learn, it has never been nor will it ever be completed. So please bookmark the site, you never know what the
next new piece to the puzzle will be, but as always,
there is something new on the 9-1-1 just about
anytime you visit..
For your information the 9-1-1 site
now comes to you from California's
Central (San Joaquin) Valley in
Hughson
California to be exact.
December 2001 became the month that the 9-1-1 unveiled
it's own domain name,
www.the911site.com. With
www.the911site.com hosted on a server
in North Carolina. We had been hosted on the old HotCity.com server until that time.
Time to maintain
the 9-1-1 it
is split between three sites: Rocknrod.com, Hughson-ca.Com and the 9-1-1 site.
All are
rather large sites and take a lot of time to maintain, so
please be patient as sections of the 9-1-1 are updated as time
passes. If you would like to visit any of the
other sites noted above, use the links that
follow:
The
9-1-1 site is not sanctioned by any department or
agency. Simplest way to explain it is this, the 9-1-1
was begun back in 1995 when there was a missing piece to
the web. At that time the Emergency Services were just
learning about the web, and links to most of the sites
that were online at the time, could be found in the much
smaller version of the 9-1-1 site at the time. As time
has passed, the 9-1-1 has changed, updated, rebuilt,
been a founding site at what was then FireFighting.Com &
Associates, and was a part of the Emergency-World.Com
& Associates till a server failure forced the
Emergency-World.com site to go offline permanently. It has had to be on the back burner a
number of times as other projects were implemented, or
sites brought online, but always seems to plug onward.
The most ambitious change is the one started September
2009 and continues on at this time. The rebuild of the
entire site, no small undertaking now that the 9-1-1
goes over the 375+ web section mark. My wife has now joined me so that we can do a lot more work on the site in less time.
Remember one thing, the 9-1-1 is your (the visitors)
site, please take a moment to let us know what is
missing, needs improvement, doesn't work or needs a
simple wash job. Hey, will even take a kind word or to,
but please let us know how we can be of even better help
to you the user of the 9-1-1 Fire Police Medical Web.
