Sites which are incomplete, which have Under Construction notices, or which contain broken graphics or links have a poor chance of being listed. Please wait to submit your web site until it is complete. Please double-check the URL, and, if possible, include an e-mail address so we may contact you if we have questions. Duplicate submission (i.e. same site submitted repeatedly to single or multiple Web Design and Development categories) is not considered to be an acceptable practice by the Open Directory Project. If your site is submitted repeatedly, it may be removed from the Directory, altogether. All sites within Domain_Names are listed with the company name as the Title. Submissions to a Regional Web Design and Development category should include the business location in the description. Sites may be listed in this category and the appropriate Regional category so the business location should also be listed in this category description. Registration Service Providers (Resellers): We invite you to submit to the correct letter alphabetically. Please submit to the appropriate subcategory, rather than to the main Domain_Names category. It will increase the time to be listed if you submit the site to an inappropriate category. You may also submit the site to the appropriate category in the Regional tree. If you provide more than one service (i.e. Domain Name Registration, Hosting, Promotion, Marketing), you should submit your site to Computers: Internet: Web Design and Development: Designers or Computers: Internet: Web Design and Development: Hosting, in the appropriate alphabar. Please do not submit to the main categories but use the alphabars. If you provide more than one service be sure to mention each of the services in your description so that searchers will be able to find you. more information (editors only) |
Domain_Names guides users to subcategories which contain all resources and services having to do with Domain Name Services.The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed database used by computer systems to map between hostnames and IP addresses, and to provide electronic mail routing information. Each site (university department, campus,company, or department within a company, for example) maintains its own database of information and runs a server program that other systems across the Internet can query. The DNS provides the protocol which allows clients and servers to communicate with each other.
This category includes the companies that provide the resources to make this system work, companies that provide the resources to end users for use or resell and sites that discuss issues in the system.
| Please submit all free email services to the Free category. All other email and related sites should be submitted to the categories in Email. |

To avoid having to use obscure usernames, you may have to register with a smaller or newer email service such as PopMail or Postmark.

Internet etiquette, or "Netiquette", refers to practices of writing, contact, and behavior on the Internet. This includes normal terms of etiquette, as well as other conventions of behavior that have become established over years of electronic communication.
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (05 Sep 00):A popular distributed document retrieval system which started as a Campus Wide Information System at the University of Minnesota. Many hosts on the Internet now run Gopher servers which provide a menu of documents. A document may be a plain text file, sound, image, submenu or other Gopher object type. It may be stored on another host or may provide the ability to search through certain files for a given string.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 Jan 2000):
gopher n. A type of Internet service first floated around 1991 and obsolesced around 1995 by the World Wide Web. Gopher presents a menuing interface to a tree or graph of links; the links can be to documents, runnable programs, or other gopher menus arbitrarily far across the net.
Some claim that the gopher software, which was originally developed at the University of Minnesota, was named after the Minnesota Gophers (a sports team). Others claim the word derives from American slang `gofer' (from "go for", dialectal "go fer"), one whose job is to run and fetch things. Finally, observe that gophers dig long tunnels, and the idea of tunneling through the net to find information was a defining metaphor for the developers. Probably all three things were true, but with the first two coming first and the gopher-tunnel metaphor serendipitously adding flavor and impetus to the project as it developed out of its concept stage.
