Personally, I haven't had problems with my age in any of my jobs (all with bosses who were >35 years old).
In my last job, I landed a $2 million web development contract for the company.
In my current job, I'm head sysadmin for a small call center (yes, I spend my days surrounded by telemarketers, but it gets me experiance to put on my resume).
I mantain 40 workstations, a $100000+ digital recording system, and several servers.
I am implicitly trusted by everyone there (except they have trouble believing my age =] ) with any piece of equipment.
And for christmas, I bought myself an 800MHz ThinkPad. Not bad for only being 16, eh?
That's actually the service I use for my domain. I must say that I'm not entirely happy with it, though. It's slow, doesn't allow you to send large messages (with attachments) through them, and isn't incredably reliable.
They also tag a little ad for themselves on the bottom of both your incoming and outgoing e-mails. They and at this time, you must have them host your DNS (though they have said that they're planning a paid service for people who want to have their DNS hosted elsewhere).
Personally, I'd look for another provider before you chose bn3.
Personally, I use gandi.net. Twelve Euro's (~ $12, US) is pretty good for a domain. But if you want to do your own research, check out the Domain Name Buyers Guide. They rate registrars by price, leagal contract, and best overall. It's well worth a look.
No kidding! I've heard about things like that happening before. But I've also heard about people who get cought with illeagal drugs and just walk away from the airport security.
Who is this moron? Durring the court session, you may want to point out a few sites like eBay, Amazon.com, bn.com, e-trade, etc that all use, you guessed it, datbases. And your browser is the client on all of them. To me, it sounds like the guy is just angry at you for some reason and knew about your site. You might want to get some publicity on this...ZDNN might be interested...
The airport cops don't actually have the power to arrest you (at least in the US)...just thought that would be a helpful tip if you ever did try somethint like that. =]
Simply enough, it's to make a differance. Isn't that what we all want to do in some way or another? I mean, we've all used bad software, or sofware that could have been good if it just didn't have that one bug, right? Well, why can't I be someone who makes peoples days a little bit better by producing usefull, bugfree (or at least with no program-stopping, data-destroying ones) software? There is no reason. So that's what I'll do.

What if someone were to crack your clothes?? Just imagine the damage that could be done assuming one added certian...peripherals.
Oh yeah, they support web baised e-mail and POP3/SMTP. So you can use whichever you prefer.

There is actually a type of bacteria that grows on the fuel rods in neuclear reactors, so I'm not surprised by this. It is interesting, though.

I think you folks will like this one.
Did you know that airport security officers can't actually arrest you in the US? Just trust me on this one...
