Since first publishing on the Web in 1996, The Site of Big Shoulders has evolved alongside new Internet technologies. The latest update, conducted in the fall of 2008, is a major overhaul of The Site of Big Shoulders' core publishing systems.
The Site of Big Shoulders has relocated its primary offices and headquarters to a new space in the Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago. Dubbed The Space of Big Shoulders, the new location has been generously provided by Enterprise Agility, a technology management consulting company run by The Site of Big Shoulders board member David Heidt.
