About The Site

What’s With The Weird Name?

My father-in-law came up with it, and it stands for One Inch Past Official Midgetdom. He heard somewhere that the official cutoff height for being a little person is 4’ 10” and because I am 4’ 11” tall, he thought up “oipom.”

If you ever meet me in real life, I will cringe internally if you call me “oipom” – it’s not my name, it’s the name of the website. I go by “Meggan” or “megganmay” pretty much everywhere on the Internet.

Hosting and Name Registration

My domain name is currently registered with Gandi, whom I’d definitely recommend as an alternative to the sexist pigsty that is GoDaddy. I’ve been with Site 5 for hosting since June of 2005, and I’ve had a great experience with them.

Statement of Purpose

oipom.com is a place where I can write what I want, post what pictures I want, and make things that are interesting to me. I probably surf my site more than anyone else does.

Advertising Policy

I do not accept advertising on my website. oipom.com is my quiet corner of the web and I prefer to keep it ad-free. You can read more about why I choose to do this on Ad-Free Blog’s FAQ page.
