Yep, everyone's favorite forum troll has a webpage.
But you knew that

And so do I, now.
it's at http://www.westerly.tk

Sammi: .tk is, in fact, a valid extension. It's for the small Pacific island of Tokelau.

All it is really is a domain-forwarder, but it's free.
And I turned off the pop-ups, so there.

For now, the site is pretty lame. But soon? Perhaps it will be glorious.

And if I break any of the 10 rules listed on the front (and only) page, in true Commie fashion I will deny that they ever existed.

Oh, and the first 3 people who I like and ask nicely can get email forwarded to their real address from yourname@westerly.tk

Yet another way I bring internet goodness to the masses.

Dude....sweet.......e-mail.......I'm debating whether or not to ask nicely, and I ask myself, Jake, do you really wish to be associated with this insane man, and take his e-mail name thingy? I don't know.....hmmmmmmmmmmmm *debates* Me! Me! pick me!

Hrm...you do have an mxpx song on your otherwise really annoying geocities page :mrgreen:...dunno

keep in mind, this is just email forwarding, not actual email. people will send mail to, say, crazyjakeboy@westerly.tk and it'll arrive at your mailbox for your yahoo account or whatever. but still. fun to pretend you've got a cool email address. just let me know what name you want for it and your regular email address and i'll hook you up.

speak to me of the banking possibilities at this site :)

banking? I'm not sure I follow you, but sure.

:mrgreen:

and from what I can figure out, the forwarding works but you get a small message above the text of the email...from dot.tk.

I'm currently testing to see whether or not this is just on the primary address, or on all.

It's free > very lame

what's lame about free?

I can't afford to pay for it, so free works for me.

So only stuff you have to pay for is cool these days?

you capitalist whores.

I also have a tk account. It's cauz it's easier to remember then my original site adress... www.mysticgoten.tk looks better then.... www.mysticgoten.freehomepage.com

The reason I take the free accounts is cauz I don't have and want a credit cart to pay the damn things. And another good, strong, healthy point: ...WHY PAY WHEN IT CAN BE FREE?!... I am a student, not a rich wealthy business man. Not yet anyway... 8)

because www.westerly.tk is easier to remember than http://pubweb.northwestern.edu/~nae321

I know that, I used to have that too... But if you want to get 'respect' or something (dunno how to call), from other ppl on the internet etc, etc, you shouldn't use 'free' things. Almost everyone knows it's free, so they say: "man... that address is free! You shouldn't be showing off w/ that!" Or something...

Just want to state that it isn't very special, and that most ppl know it isn't special...

Oh, and you don't have to be rich to have a .com domain or something. I get them for as low as 10 euro p/y. Seen them for even less.
