I have been collecting minimalist web sites at: http://users.erols.com/msteven/minimum/ and figure that others have probably stumbled across others of which I am not aware. A minimalist website is loosly defined as a domain that appears to have little functional content, but that nevertheless manages to convey a message. The classic example is http://www.feh.com By "domain", I mean that the url is http://www.domainname.com and not http://www.domainname.com/username A clearer definition is hard to find, but a minimalist site is certainly *not* an "under construction" or "parked domain" place holder, unless it happens to be really creative and different, and hangs around for a long time. If anybody here knows a better spot where I could ask this question, then by all means let me know. --Steve
