HSPN.com is the home page and main portal to the entire HSPN Network of websites. HSPN features automotive aftermarket news, reviews, images, and videos, a vendor directory (yellow pages), enthusiast forums, and other various features such as a customizable user home page, image hosting services, and more. The entire network was originally designed and created by RealityDesign in October of 2005 and featured custom software that was truly ahead of its time; the most remarkable of which was the HSPN Video player, featuring flash (FLV) video streaming nearly 2 months before the technology was adopted by google or youtube even existed.
As the network grew, new features were added and other features were upgraded. In early 2006, RealityDesign created customizable user homepage software allowing HSPN members to easily make their own home pages consisting of their favorite links, favorite search engines, a to-do list, and more. Later in 2006, RealityDesign created a custom Image Management System (IMS) to allow HSPN members to upload and manage their photos, much like popular services such as photobucket. By mid-2006 it was clear that HSPN’s primary direction was in internet TV and HD video downloads. Shortly after, HSPN Videos underwent a massive upgrade, was renamed ”HSPN TV,” and moved to its new home at hspn.tv. The new video player was far more advanced, ran on a sleeker, more user-friendly navigation structure and interface, featured higher quality video with faster streaming speeds and no buffering, and allowed for 720p HD downloadable versions of the HSPN videos. In early 2007 HSPN TV was upgraded for a third time with a brand new way of viewing streaming content. Users could switch between the standard 400 pixel wide streaming version or a 720 pixel wide version that was nearly twice the size offered by any other video streaming website on the internet.
