domain name expiring January 31, 2006

good grief….  My domain name expired and earlier today I lost resolution to my domain through my ISP.  Network Solutions had transferred it to one of their pages with an explanation stating that it had expired.  Well, so much for transferring it to godaddy this year (where all my other domains are registered at).  You can’t transfer a domain to another registrar after it has reached the expired status.  So, I bit the bullet and paid full price to NS for another year.

Oh, and yes, they did send me three or four reminders during the month of January.  However, it didn’t help me since I wasn’t monitoring the account the emails were coming to.

Lesson learned:  If you are going to use more than one email address - for whatever reason - check them for goodness sakes!!!
