    Another reason why you should NEVER use NetworkSolutions for your domain registrations

    Posted by Gene in Uncategorized, Business

    evilTechCrunch has reported that NetworkSolutions is now hijacking subdomains when you use their domain registration (specifically their DNS) services. This is most reprehensible. I’m sure this is copyright infringement too. If you haven’t already, you should move any domains that you have registered with them to another registrar, who knows what they will do next…

    Subdomain - Generally known as a “Domain within a Domain”, subdomains are web addresses built upon an existing domain name. For example, “subdomain.domain.com” is built upon “domain.com”.

    AOL making a play with Bebo?

    Posted by Gene in Uncategorized

    bebo time on siteAOL just paid $850 million for bebo.com, who cares right? Well it just caught my eye that AOL made this play when all you seem to hear about these days is Yahoo and Microsoft or what Facebook and MySpace has done recently… AOL silently has one of the largest shares of instant messenger users on the internet with it’s AOL messaging platform and (I didn’t know this until just now) ICQ. Facebook and MySpace blow bebo.com out of the arena with their sheer number of visitors (though Bebo had 22.4 million unique visitors worldwide in January), but if you break down the numbers people spend more time on bebo.com than it’s competitors.

    What’s my point, not much really, other than with all these stories of Yahoo, Google, Facebook and MySpace all the time, just don’t forget AOL. The last time I heard from them they were killing the Netscape project, which seemed like a good business move but still sad at the same time. Sounds like they are making pretty strong moves to me these days.

    Fascinating? Really?

    Posted by Jay in Uncategorized

    I’m struggling to find the point of this article by Douglas Karr, titled Is the next President of the United States running Linux?

    According to Netcraft, Ron Paul’s site was previously run on Microsoft IIS but as of June 5th it’s now on Apache!

    That’s worthy of an exclamation point? That’s like saying Ross Perot used to drive a Ford, but now he drives a Chevrolet! His results show that the majority of Republican candidates have websites hosted on Windows servers, while a majority of Democrats run something other than Windows (Linux or FreeBSD). He sums it up by saying it’s ‘fascinating’. Please, Douglas, tell us why it’s fascinating.
