HOW WEO GOT STARTED
In January of 2001, Kaye Tyler and I decided to promote a
class reunion for the West End High School graduates of 1959 through 1963. We
assembled a committee and began planning for a reunion on October 6th, 2001. It
was
decided that a website would be the easiest way to keep classmates informed
about reunion
plans. The site went live on
February 25, 2001.
As word spread,
emails and photos poured in and new feature pages were added. By week 28,
we
had over 20,000 hits. We have since held
4 class reunions and 5 class
picnics.
* In
2004, the Classmates.com marketing director informed
us that
WEO was the largest
dedicated school reunion website
they have seen and was very likely the largest in the world. WEO has since more than doubled in size, so
the same probably holds today.
WEB SITE RENDERING
West End Online was
built in 2001 using Microsoft Frontpage, which was introduced before the advent
of tablets or smartphones. Frontpage coding enables pages to render properly on
desktop monitors and laptop computers. However, if you browse WEO on a smart device, you
may need to scroll in to enlarge text and photos for viewing (not ideal, but it
suffices). To correct this, I would have to rebuild WEO from scratch using
more current software. Needless to say, with over 400 pages, this would be a
daunting task.
