Below I've detailed my own Top 3 list of domain name registrars (sites). This is based on my own experience of registering domain names for the past seven years, as well as my observations of past trends in this industry.
1) Enom.Com - offers an excellent control panel to manage individual or multiple domain names 2) Moniker.Com - fairly new but quickly establishing a presence because of pricing specials 3) Netsol.Com - one-time monopoly registrar of all .com domain names and still a giant It is important to note that many cheaper options than the three above are also readily available. However, cost should never be your most important consideration in this regard, as there are many 'fly by day' domain name registrars offering dirt cheap rates that are here today but gone tomorrow (possibly with your domain name). JAMAICAN BLOGS A welcoming and growing phenomenon in Jamaican cyberspace has been the number of Jamaicans in Jamaica and abroad who are now using blogs (online diaries) as a medium of communication and information dissemination. Technorati.Com's Jamaica section - http:// www.technorati.com/tags/ Jamaica/ - offers shortcuts to some of the more recent Jamaica-related blog and picture posts on the Internet. Similarly, http://del.icio.us/tag/jamaica/ offers shortcuts to Jamaica- related links that have been bookmarked recently by other Internet users. TOP 10 WEB FADS From the initial novelty of blogs to the annoying 'Dancing Baby' that's still being sent around by email almost 10 years later, check out Cnet's Top 10 Web fads of all time - http://www.cnet.com/4520-11136_1-6268155-1.html WEBSITES OF THE WEEK http://www.headlinejamaica.com - HeadlineJamaica. Com offers a direct and pointed weekly email newsletter that gives you a comprehensive look at happenings on the local and international dancehall/reggae scene. Http://www.webpronews. com - a non-Jamaican website that again, as with Site-Reference.Com last week, I hope, will show the average person that the Internet can be a lot more useful than simply a tool for doing research, playing games, communicating with friends or just idly passing time. Very easily, the Internet can be your full-time place of work. http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20050824/business/business9.html |
