A chronicle of "DevPsy.Org" and a sitemap to provide you with the overarching navigational structure of this site.

History of DevPsy.Org

In 1997 I first learned to design web pages and used them for a class I was teaching. A few pages in this site were first written at this time.

Between 1998 and 2003 I gradually designed a web-site for Developmental Psychology. This included posting lesson plans, which were surprisingly popular. Many pages from this site became the first pages written for DevPsy.Org.

DevPsy.org was released in August 2003.

For most of the next 3 years, a unique vistor came to DevPsy.org every 7 minutes and about half of them bookmark the web-site. The percentage who bookmark the site peaks at the begining of traditional college semesters.

Several people who had trouble relocating this site asked why they can not find it in Google. Unfortunately a spammer broke into the web-site in January 2006 and redirected traffic to a junk-selling web-site. It took me about a week to discover what happened and fix it. In that time Google dropped this web-site from its index. I wrote them about what happened. Unfortunately, after 5 months, they still have not allowed my web-site back in. Because of this event, DevPsy.org recieves a unique visitor only about once every 12 minutes. To their credit, both Yahoo Search and MSN Search quickly distinguished between an inherently bad site and a good site temporarily stolen by spammers. DevPsy.org still comes up on the first page of a search for "Developmental Psychology" at those sites.

My hope for this web-site, in the long term, is that it becomes a repository that brings together the best teaching ideas from many Developmental Psychologists.
