Site History

The Internet was introduced to me back in 1994 and I often searched the then bland web for Radiohead lyrics, news, pictures, etc... Of course there wasn't much around but I enjoyed sites like The Official Unofficial Radiohead Site and Tony' s site (the very first Radiohead web page), both nonexistent today. In 1996 I started a personal web page from my AOL account with basically nothing but my own rants and raves. It really never went anywhere. This was my first experience with making a web page.

On March 26, 1997, my birthday, I decided to make a little Radiohead site. Originally called A Green Plastic Radiohead Page, it had nothing more than a few links and some bad graphics. I didn't want to make it a big site as there were plenty of great sites like Lift and Planet Telex, but this was a very exciting time as OK Computer was about to be released and there were floods of rumors on the Internet. I was caught up with this and began to spend more time adding content. It was at this time when I ditched my other site and began focusing on Green Plastic.

I continued updating up until early 1998 when I moved Green Plastic Radiohead from http://members.aol.com/blur9999/radiohead.html to http://radiohead.zoonation.com. I joined Zoonation, a U2 based web sited that housed different artists and band websites. I stayed there until May 1, 1999, when I got my own domain, www.greenplastic.com.

In September of 1999, I took over Ed Peer's Radiohead site, Injektilo*, and merged it together with Green Plastic, forming a large hub for Radiohead information.

Since then, Green Plastic has grown and grown to be something I thought it would never be... huge! Right now GP boasts about 80,000 unique visitors a month, making it one of the most-visited RH sites on the Web.
