after shuffling around for a few hours this morning, i remembered i'd been trying out daft names last night, in one of those 'is the domain available' things. as it was on my own hosts site, and they already have my payment details, it was only a couple of clicks and there was a done deal.

damn it was too easy, but anyway, i'm now the proud owner of www.quantum-physics.co.uk there's a page there that i stole from invalid-brush to try it out. once i work out what kind of theme i'm going with, i'll update it.

the name's mine for 2 years, and i get 500mb of hosting for 1 year. maybe not the best that can be had, but i've spent more on a curry that's went in the bin, so it's a fair deal imo. hehe, it could even be worth it to have it on a cv. :smile:

LOL. Imagine if a uni or something that studied deeply in that area wanted that domain.

Heh, nice. So it's just ?8 for two years, no monthly fee or such?

watchout, about 2 years i reckon, maybe a little more. they were for a tfc plugin that died because of steam. well, i think it was really that too much was being done server-side, making it too laggy for more than a couple of ships, but i like to blame steam.

Otzman, yes, no more fees. if i want to renew the hosting after a year, then i need to pay ?60 for that, or pick another ?8 gimmick name for a year. ou don't get three guesses. :wink:
