  1. What New.Net is: on Fair Software Installation · · Score: 5, Informative

    new.net is a company who decided that instead of waiting for the new top level domains to be approved, they'd just start up their own root domain servers and sell the new top level domains themselves.

    So if you want to buy sweat.shop, you can go to new.net and do just that.

    The software in question is a "plugin" that "fixes" windows to use their dns servers when requesting a domain that ends in ".shop" or whatever.

    For more info, don't be so lazy and click on the "About Us" button at the bottom of the new.net homepage

    http://www.new.net/about_us_mission.tp

    I submitted a story about this on slashdot long ago and, surprise! it was rejected. I'm sure I wasn't the only one who thought this site and company is worth discussing.

  2. ITX Cases??? on The Incredible Shrinking Motherboard · · Score: 1

    This is a great looking mobo, but as it stands they don't seem to mention any ITX size cases. I'd hate to buy this cute little mobo and not have anywhere to put it except my big oversized ATX case

    Not a third area code, but rather a third AND fourth area code. 416 gets 647 and 905 gets 289. See addthecode.com
