“Personal”
This site is the one-page CV / Resume / Portfolio addition to my tiny network.
Besides some basic education and work experience information, it highlights a few interests and hobbies of mine.
For those who land on the page, it also provides a means of contact and links to my social network activities .

“The Hub”
The site you are browsing right now used to be the center of my universe, but over time it has been relegated to the cheap seats in the last row.
Today it serves as a hub or portal to my various sites and projects and, to be quite honest, I have kept the domain around because it was the first one I bought.
Maybe more exciting things will happen here in the near or far future, but for now, the door to my other sites it will remain.

“The Heart and Soul”
You are looking at a screenshot of the new version of my main site.
Currently I am rearranging my activities on the Internet and this site, which is the closest to my heart, is being refurbished, polished up and will be relaunched in October of 2011.

“The Nitty-Gritty”
After having blogged about this and that these past 15 years and beyond, I decided to concentrate on the heart of the matter, me, myself and I.
For people who knew me when I was at CIJS/CIS in Copenhagen, Denmark, who were confronted with me at the various schools I worked at or who think they know me from elsewhere, this is the nitty-gritty, the dirt and the private, all thrown into one Tumblr-like blog.
You can access the posts sequentially, via the “selected topics” link or via the “timeline” one right next to it at the top of the page.
If you want to know who, what or why I am, this is where you’ll find the answer(s).

History
I started moving about and publishing bits and pieces on the Internet around 1990, shortly before the “World Wide Web” became globally accessible in 1991. Whatever I published then was, up until weblog software really took hold, table-based and, later, enhanced by David Siegel’s layout tricks. Grand times.
My first real site was deus52.com, a site which ran exclusively on the wonderful pMachine and Expression Engine programs, released into the wild by Rick Ellis, today CEO of Ellis Labs. It was the closest I ever got to a regular weblog. In terms of enjoyment, it was probably the peak of my online activities.
Before I decided to kill all my online activities, livingwithmusic, which had been a member of the 9rules Network and which had been featured in web design galleries around the Internet, was perhaps my most popular site with many top spots in Google searches and a myriad of accidental or regular visitors.
Additions: 2011
In 2011, I tweaked my sites here and there and added one, volkher-remembers.com.
One would think that one site should be enough, but I like to keep things separate. It’s a German thing, I think. This new site assembles an assortment of brief episodes that have shaped my life thus far. A lot of what you can find on here centers on my time in Denmark, on my work as a teacher and on the various past-time activities I indulge in.
