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 contracted with Patterson to have him build the official Nothing Records homepage in 1996 at nothingrecords.com (and eventually the official NIN web presence). Patterson provided semi-regular status updates on news.nin.netNIN News, but the site never launched. [https://web.archive.org/web/19970126224943/http://www.nothingrecords.com:80/] Apparently, they parted ways in late 1998, probably coincident with when Patterson also stopped providing updates on news.nin.netNIN News, and the official [[nin.com]] website launched in May 1999, under [[Rob Sheridan]]'s stewardship.
