p2pnet news | P2P:- Two months ago, I wrote a glowing review of the Canadian Internet Registration Authority’s new “whois” policy that was supposed to better protect the privacy of hundreds of thousands of Canadians. The column argued that the policy, which governs access to personal information of dot-ca domain name registrants, would serve as a model for other domain name registries around the world. Apparently I spoke too soon. While dot-ca registrants across the country were being advisICANN And IANA Defaced
Well, I have to admit I only just saw this one this morning. Since it’s a long weekend(ish) here in Canada I wasn’t planning on updating the site until Wednesday. This one is something worth sharing. I figured I’d pass it along. A group calling itself “NetDevilz” defaced the homepages for ICANN & IANA. Ouch.

The Disclaimer comes first The following post is a ton of fodder I have collected over the last year or two on BitTorrent and its implications for education institutions.

Since Rogers Mobile announced their iPhone pricing this week, the reaction to their plans has been less that enthusiastic (to say the least). RuinediPhone.com has started an online petition to Rogers to change their rate plans and an open letter to Steve Jobs on what is certainly a slap in the face. Did I sign it? You bet I did. Do I think it will make much of a difference? Yeah, not so much. That said, this is what I left for them: Rogers, Canada is a world leader in technology, but RRogers iPhone: Get a second mortgage
Whoever leaked the supposed memo with Rogers’ pricing for the Canadian iPhone played a cruel joke on their fellow Canucks: instead of the much-hoped-for $30 unlimited data plan — like AT&T users in the U.S. have — we get a series of plans that start at twice that amount, and the cheapest plan comes with a pathetic 400 megabytes of data and a paltry 75 text messages. If you want 200 text messages (which many U.S. plans come with) and a gigabyte of data per month, you have to spend a whopping $10Liberal Party & Dion versus “Green Shift Inc.”
Liberal Party & Dion versus “Green Shift Inc.” Posted by Sandy on June 27th, 2008 The Liberal Party of Canada’s use of the name ”The Green Shift“ for their carbon tax plan was and continues to be a David and Goliath story. It is a fight between a large political organization and a small environmental stewardship business called Green Shift Inc. It is an unjust and unnecessary disagreement because the LPC knew they were using a name that was very similar to one going through the trademark prCanadian Web Hosting
After you have domain name, the next thing that you have to do is to choose a reliable web hosting with great support. It is not encourage using free web hosting, most of the time free hosting will gives a domain name like www.abcfreehosting.com/yourdomain, domain name looks like this not very professional, right?

Search engine marketers in the US tend to look West when trying to spot new SEM trends. As Frederick Jackson Turner first observed back in 1893, the frontier has always had a significant influence on American perceptions.
