Christine McVie.com
 

Has anyone noticed that this doesn't even send you to Universal any more?

I got "oops this link appears to be broken" when I looked at it for the first time in ages today

the domain name registration expired on 5 July but it is not available to purchase. Maybe Martin Wyatt is renewing it.

Two URLs are taken -- ChristineMcVie.com and ChristineMcVie.info. A "whois" search on the former turns up only the name of an internet domain registrar ("NetNames"). On the latter, it turns up a name and address in Thailand. (Someone may have just picked up that domain name on spec ... thinking that they'd be able to resell it.) Neither domain name has a matching website.

The URL ChristineMcVie.net is available, if anyone wants to start a Christine fan site.

Maybe someone is typosquatting.

Pardon my ignorance but what does that mean?

Gail

I'm sorry, but I don't get where the typo is here, David. Oh well, skies the limit.

Gail, that's a slang term for typing error in the US. Sometimes people buy domain names that are similar to those of big sites based on the likelihood that people will get the spelling wrong and stumble upon their domain by accident. So, you might buy Googel, because you know a few hundred people a day will come to that site, trying to get to Google.

Also, sometimes people buy a domain name that they think someone will want and try to sell the rights to the domain to that person. That's called cybersquatting. (I've never heard of typosquatting ... but there are plenty of things I've never heard of.)

thank you.

Gail

Oh irony, how you mock me :laugh:



(Should've been "Sky's The Limit." Damn you Perfect!)

For you you you you you and me....:nod:

Even though the lyrics are Christine's, Stevie should have thrown that in Lindsey's face when he was telling her about Thrown Down.

Michele

It was a missed opportunity, to be sure. If she had done that, guys like me would've developed a love affair with Stevie (even though she didn't like ugly drunks with limited potential nearly as much as Christine).

hahaha I remember that conversation on DR... Do you think using the wrong pronoun in a prep is as bad as changing tense...

They are both wrong..

I do know changing tense would fail you in most composition classes... but "for you and I" is kind of obvious... that might fail you too....

My guess is Christine didn't want to sing on a "EEEEEEEEEEEEE" once again... so they ignored it...

You sell yourself way too short.... You a handsome drunk with unlimited potential!!:wavey:

Of course, to do that Stevie would have had to have been aware that FM had a song called "You and I" part I or II. Dollars to donuts, she has no memory of it.

Michele

I call that capitalism.
