It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Your tag here.

domain reg question -- is it possible to register a domain name to an organization rather than a person?

Yes.

(oh, yeah, and the org is a duly registered 501 c 3 yadda yadda, which I suspect could make a difference)

That covers my caveat. At least with Network Solutions (only registrar I have experience with), you'll have to prove the legitamacy of an organization (i.e. provide letters of incorporation, etc.) and you'll have to sign an affidavit stating you have the authority to act on behalf of that organization. It can be quite frustrating if you don't have all your Is crossed and Ts dotted.

As far as transferring power, I'd provide a general administrator email address as the Administrative and Technical contact. Your successor could then be provided access to that email account which will help them answer questions sent by the registrar to the address they have on record. You'll also want to share registrar account usernames and passwords and answers to secret questions.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

For God's sake, don't use Network Solutions. They are eviler than the evilest evil thing that's evil. If you ever want to leave them, they will make you jump through fifty hoops and it will take months.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

For God's sake, don't use Network Solutions. They are eviler than the evilest evil thing that's evil.

Yeah, been there, done that, barely escaped with my sanity intact.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Yeah, been there, done that, barely escaped with my sanity intact.

Wow, that takes inner strength.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Can you reboot an iPod? Mine froze again, and I don't really want to wait until the juice runs out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

  • Connect your iPod to the Apple iPod Power Adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect your iPod to your Mac's built-in FireWire port
  • Toggle the Hold switch on and off (slide it to Hold and then turn it off again)
  • Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until the Apple/iPod logo appears (about 6 to 10 seconds). You may need to repeat this step

Looks like I'll need to go back to my car to do it.

It usually takes me a couple of tries, by the way.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

All you need to do is hold down the Play and Menu buttons. The other steps are useless.
