I know that this is not currently available. But I also know that it is going to be one of the first paid features. Any word on an ETA?

Afraid not. Best bet would be to send in a feedback and suggest that they start thinking more about this feature. I know they were working on in a few months ago.

The mechanisms are already in place (a couple of the developers are hosting blogs here with different URLs) but ever since they got funding all talk of paid features has gone very quiet.

A rat fink slime bag bastard bought my domain name but then cancelled his site I guess because now it won’t go through but yesterday it did:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=nosysnoop.com&btnG=Google+Search

And I did search before I picked my name if anyone had bought nosysnoop.com, org, net, etc.

Is this a spam site? They’re the ones that bought my domain name:

Actually I see nosysnoop.com as available.

So why would they pay for it then? :(

Looks like someone bought it but then let it lapse. If you wanted it, I would pick it up now so as not to let someone buy it.

I’m still afraid of the WhoIs. I know we can go to certain places that will keep it private but isn’t there talk of the laws changing for this and everyone’s WhoIs would be made public by law? But then I would have to buy .com, .org, .net, and also as nosy_snoop, nosy-snoop, also with all of them as .com, .org, .net. OY!

Buy the domain with your real info so it will pass any credit card check and then go back and edit it with garbage crud.

I wouldn’t go anywhere that charges $35 a year. I’d stick with a $7 or $8 a year place. Yes, there are cheaper places even but usually your trading off customer service.

noseysnooper:

You can go to this site to see if your domain is taken: http://www.dnsstuff.com/pages/expert.htm

Enter the url: http://www.noseysnoop.com into the WHOIS/IP WHOIS Lookup, and find out who owns it, or if it’s owned.

Good luck, I’m still looking for answers to my questions. It’s so hard being a bastard without knowing how to push the right buttons! Grrr Arggg.

I have my domain name patriotsfanblog.com, I bought it from yahoo for only $2 US I believe. It was very simple.

They’re listing as $9.95 now. Knowing what their customer service is like and how they’re prospam, I can’t recommend them.

We’rre getting off topic though.
