==The Unofficial Nine Inch Nails Homepage==
Jason Patterson launched the Unofficial Nine Inch Nails Homepage at the nothing.nin.net domain in 1994. It hosted images, audio files, lyrics, copies of the NIN Discography and NIN FAQ from [[alt.music.nin]], guitar tabs, interviews, and other files and information. Due to its easy to remember URL and reliable hosting, it quickly became the most popular NIN fansite on the nascent Internet. It went through three major site designs: a Downward Spiral theme when it launched, a Further Down the Spiral theme in 1995, and the final design, a Perfect Drug theme in 1997. Although it hasn't been updated since 1997, Patterson continues to own and host the website. [https://nothing.nin.net]]
nin.net also hosted the Hope and Vaseline Fanzine [https://hnv.nin.net/] and NIN News [https://news.nin.net], one of the first NIN news websites, which Patterson continued to update through 1998.
Because of the popularity of the Unofficial Homepage, NIN management reached out to Patterson to have him build the official Nothing Records homepage in 1996 at nothingrecords.com. Although a placeholder page was setup, Patterson never finished the work and the site never launched. [https://web.archive.org/web/19970126224943/http://www.nothingrecords.com:80/]
