The internet dvector | 1st Sept 2006
The internet is not a safe place to be. If you've not already done so change your web-browser to firefox or opera. Make sure you have as the minimum an active firewall running on your system.
Domain name costs .co.uk
dvector | 28th August 2006
Something to watch out for: If you register a domain very cheaply then its likely you'll be asked to pay a higher price at renewal time (.co.uk normally requires renewal every two years)
An example is simply.com At the end of two years the registration for .co.uk hikes up from £2.89 to £9.89 plus VAT. (The bill will be £19.99 + VAT for 2 yrs) That's not too bad for one domain but if you have more than a few the bill can be quite large. A double whammy is that to transfer away will cost you a further £15 + VAT per domain. I must say though in this example simply.com are a first class hosting service, despite the gotcha with domain pricing. Even better if you pay for hosting through them you'll get your domain for free.
On a general note, If you have 3 or more domains and want to escape your domain registrars clutches, then you can do so by forcing a TAG transfer directly through nominet.org.uk for a one-off fee of aprox £30 +VAT provided all of the domains are registered to the same owner.
XHTML & CSS dvector | 10th July 2006The website you're looking at goes through various experimental stages. The XHTML and CSS logos at the bottom of the page can be clicked to show that the site now conforms to certain W3C guidelines.
What does this mean? Well hopefully it means the pages are more accessible. They are also easier to maintain. Accessability should mean the site is 'readable' to a wider audience especially the visually impaired by using screen reader software.
