I had the same totally lost, heart sunk feeling when I tried to log on about 6:00am this morning. Glad to see it came back. I now know the day will be just fine..... :P

The .org site still does not work for me, were you able to log on the .org site?

Bob,
Is it just me???? I still get a generic screen from Who-Is and when I push the "Why am I seeing this web-site?" button, it tries to send a e-mail to the Who-Is registry that sez engravingetc.org is expired.
I got here via the engravingetc.biz name
:S

John,
I spoke with David, and he conveyed that he had switched registrars for the domain name about ten days ago. There was a little snag in the transfer, but the EE family will be back together in no time. :-)

I sincerely apologize for the disruption.
Here's what happened:
I requested a transfer of the EE.org domain name, to a new host, well-ahead of the 5/3/06 expiration date.
Due to an authorization code snag (a code is required of all .org domain name transfers) I'm waiting for a new authorization code, which after submitting, I'm told may take a few days to restore the site, under the EE.org name.

I have most EE address extensions, except for .com which has been offered at over $500.

Imagine how I felt, when someone asked why the site was down.

I think I've got over 30 domains at this point, for various web sites I run as well as variations on the same names. So far I've only paid extra for 2 of them. One was $100 to get the plural of my main domain (djdesigns.com vs djdesign.com). The other was expensive and I have yet to actually do anything with the name 5 months after I bought it, but I paid $1200 to get "videoart.org" so I could set up an informational portal site about video art. I wanted videoart.com but they want $9800 for that one. The $1200 stung for a few weeks, but I'm glad I grabbed it now.
On another note, I see that your .biz name expires in just over 1 month. You can go renew it at any time and add more years to that. You don't lose the month in the process. Most of mine that I know I want to hang on to I renew for 5 or 10 years at a time. It usually saves a few bucks.

The picture was so old that it blew the transistors.
(Sounds better than the real reason, maybe we should put back the picture of the mule.)

All my domains, are set to renew automatically, although I do plan to lock them in for longer than one year, this time around.
