Welcome...

Hello! I'm Lorelle R. Smith: a lifelong wordsmith, and by extension, a namesmith. Naming companies and products has always been a passion of mine, so when the Internet came along, I was naturally intrigued by the concept of domain names.

For businesses, however, domain registration issues are a minefield just waiting to explode in the unsuspecting owner's face.

I'm sure Tim Berners-Lee didn't intend the domaining infrastructure to become such a nightmare. Why on earth would he and his colleagues think it was wise to create all those extensions (.com, .net, .org, and all the ones that came later) to enable duplicate names?

I've created this website to bring some of these issues out into the open, because I haven't seen this discussed anywhere else.

Thanks for visiting!
