- mintplant 9y agoMore about single-serving sites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-serving_site https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-serving_site > A single-serving site (SSS) is a website composed of a single page with a dedicated domain name and serves only one purpose. The term was originally coined by Jason Kottke in February 2008, although single-serving sites have existed since the dawn of the internet. And Purple.com specifically: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple.com https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple.com > According to the creator, software engineer Jeff Abrahamson, the site originated from the difficult process of accessing and surfing the internet in its early days, similar to most early single-serving sites. > The site was launched on 31 August 1994. From its launch to late 2006 the background colour was #DD00FF, resulting in numerous complaints that it was not actually purple. It was changed to #7D26CD on 6 November 2006 based on recommendations.
