Handy search tip
[edit]I can't think of a more acceptable place to put this, and can't really justify putting it on the page itself.
In order to Google only sites that only belong to a particular domain you can use:
site:.domain search term
So, to search only sites belonging to .museum for references to Salvador Dali enter the search:
site:.museum "salvador dali"
Note the period after the colon.
Well, I find it very handy. --bodnotbod 10:01, Feb 13, 2005 (UTC)
The TLD organisation is not very useful
[edit]Do you organise your files by which ones were created by companies, and which ones were created by non-profit organisations? No. Does anyone? No. Then why is the Internet organised this way?
It has ended up being practically a flat address space with the TLDs not providing any useful categorisation of sites or information about the subject of a site
A much more logical domain system would be something similar to the system for newsgroups, where the groups are organised into a logical hierarchy of categories. Jibjibjib 06:51, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
