Down With Domain Kiting!
2007-10-10 05:31:00 I realize this is a little bit off the beaten path for the Blog Master, but I have something important to talk about.You see, when the WWW first became something of a "regular" thing, it was all free. I mean EVERYTHING was free. To a fault, if you know what I mean.Yeah, well, it didn't take long until marketers started arriving, because they had discovered this new, untapped medium. And, really, it wasn't so bad because here - on the Internet - even the small business person selling eBay goods in his pajamas could compete with companies like IBM. Or so we thought.That was the beginning of the domain name wars, as I like to call them. Big companies could pay more, obviously, for domain names.

Además, eso no ocurrió ayer sino en 1960. Yo tenía entonces 8 añitos. Y él subió con un globo de helio, el Excelsior III, a 31.300 metros de altura.

Domain Kiting
2007-02-27 04:12:00 What is ‘domain kiting’? In ‘domain kiting’ a registrar - or its PSEUDO client! - registers a domain and puts up mini-Web sites — loaded with search engine links — for domains names for which they never pay. When people land on these Web sites and click on the links, money is made. A registrar who ...
Blind Kiting.
0000-00-00 00:00:00 I need to find a blind person so that I could hand them a kite and then tell them to hold my pet bird for a second. Then just walk away and see what happens. It’s either that or just avoid them completely.
