Truly, Nothing Is Sacred.

Sigh. Network Solutions is now selling all the information in the whois database to direct marketers. If you've ever registered a domain name, direct marketers will now be able to target you based on any information you've entered in the registration database, as well as how long your site has been up, if you're doing ecommerce, if your domain is active or not… damn.

My name is Steve Ivy and I write about technology, the open web, social software, and general nerdity on monkinetic.com. You should follow me on Twitter or subscribe to this blog if you like what you're reading. I spend my days hacking Movable Type, python, Django, and various other efforts at Wallrazer. This is my personal site.
