someone on webgrrls posted a hotwired story that was critical of network solutions. it
appears that they have redesigned their site since BrettR and I engaged in a
discussion of this last week [which it sounds like many of you missed - it was
scintilating <g>].
there is now a "search box" on the top page that yields traditional WhoIs information.
the site doesn't even look like i remember it looking last week.
nevertheless, type in http://www.internic.net and you get
http://www.networksolutions.com/ . in my mind, they AIN'T the same thing
there is a backlash - it's been compared to a contractor building a freeway, then
appropriating the freeway for its own marketing/cash generation [along with name
change].
