riverscuomo.com is Rivers Cuomo's personal website.

2002

The domain was purchased by Cuomo's assistant Sheeny Bang in 2002 and officially went live in September of that year. The site's first incarnation looked similar to Karl's Corner at the time except the background was black rather than white. Bang blogged almost daily about her interactions with Cuomo.

2003

In 2003, the website redirected to weezer.com.

2004

In 2004, the site was redirected to Cuomo's MySpace page and remained as such until 2011.

2011

In 2011, Rivers launched a revamped version of the site in the form of a WordPress blog. Among these posts were announcements for things such as the release of The Pinkerton Diaries and various Nerd Night events.

2020—present

In 2020, Cuomo created a new website with various pages created as assignments for CS50W, an online programming course offered through Harvard that teaches web programming using Python and JavaScript.
