VanDenBerghe’s article mormon.org made me smile. It’s the second time I have seen an Ensign article that includes an explanation of a piece of the church’s technology instead of just counsel, which is so common to see in the Ensign magazine. The author gave an idea about the purpose of www.mormon.com, explained its organization, and even provided detailed instructions on how to send electronic greeting cards. This article was written back in 2002, and now the church website, www.mormon.org, looks completely different than it looked back then. Of course, now it takes some time to follow the explained organization of the original website using the current website. However, although the site’s layout has changed a lot, the main idea is still preserved: to introduce people to the LDS religion. This article is now just another piece of the Church’s technology history that will be carried over to our descendants and will remind the website’s developers to follow the original ideas of the site creators.
