Please folks keep up, I've already commented that 404 doesn't mean no advertising, and since we haven't heard from TUCOWS I think we should assume it means not blank, since if there is no content this could be done by other means. I've lost track of what name that TUCOWS will use for the domain, if it is renewyourname.net as per the second annoucement, can we have a more professional front page to this domain than the current "www.renewyourname.net" please, which has no content except a broken background graphic link and the title "spotted". Some explanation of what is happening would seem the most appropriate content. _______________________________________________ domains-gen mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-gen
