You might as well face it, the U.S. is addicted to email.
In a recent study compiled by Opinion Research Corp., the chasm between casual and nonstop emailers appears to have grown. Here are some of the important numbers from the study:

I received the first shipment of The Developers Thursday, so now begins the FUN task of making people read it. Fortunately for you, the potential reader, I've misplaced my torture devices, at least for the time being.
There are a lot of things the World Wide Web can do for you, but healing you is not one of them.
Transferring any domain to your own control is about to be come a breeze. Or maybe not.
Starting Nov. 12, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) began utilizing a new Policy on Transfer of Registrations between Registrars.
