On October 12, 2004, the original version this website, originally titled “Idina Menzel ~ Here: The Ultimate Fan Base,” was launched. One year later, on October 14, 2005, it was re-launched on a dedicated domain with a completely new design and a ton of new and exclusive content, entitled IDINA-HERE.COM. The site has grown and evolved alongside Idina’s career to become the best (if I do say so myself) and most complete source of information about Idina, her life, and her career, both past and present. It’s been fun to become so involved here, and it’s an honor to announce that today is the 5th anniversary of the birth of this site as we now know it!
To celebrate this achievement, and to thank all the visitors for being awesome and making this site what it is with the contributions, comments, and hits, we are holding a contest in honor of this website’s inspiration and namesake. Sharpen your pencils and your minds, this one is a doozy, because the prize is a doozy! If you’re stumped, keep in mind that all answers can be found somewhere on this website.
