Friendster to shut down on May 31.
When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

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

Quick bit of advice. I have a lightly trafficed website where I registered Com, Net and Org. I'm thinking this is overkill, and I should save the money, just renew com, and let whoever wants it have .org and .net. Any serious downside to this?

I think it looks professional to have all three, Typo. I do, for both my business and my personal domains, and the personal one is so lightly trafficked as to be unused. I basically have it for the email addresses. Generally registration by itself is cheap enough to make it worthwhile, I feel.

Actually, now that I think about it, I actually own 15 domains, only one of which sees regular traffic.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
eep! I'm about to buy my first one!

Is that (if you don't mind my asking) like $1500 a year?

I'd guess more like 150 to 300 per year.

Yeah, getting the domain isn't that expensive, it's the hosting that costs. Having the .net, .biz, etc. just makes sure that other businesses aren't confused with yours.
