    Okey, I need your opinion guys...should I buy a domain or I should just forget about it??? I've been toying with the idea for weeks now...Dollars are kinda hard to get here in the Philippines, but I'm willing to take the risk. I need your opinion...onegai!

    Well, domain's are costly, as you duly noted. But, having one means a lot of freedom in the 'net. Well, as far as what you can have in your domain, at least. Some now allow .zips and .mp3's only if you pay the monthly rate. But, I've been using Brinkster, and there's one popup ad...but you get 30 megs of space.

    You're domain also makes it easy to remember webpages. Gah, choices!!! Well, I'd say save money and stick with a free one. Then use the money for something bigger. :D

    Well, if you are able to get the money to pay for it, then do it :)
    And like what izzy said, it's a great freedome on the net..

    I am thinking of buying one allready ^^;

    ...sigh...I think I'm just gonna sit in a corner and ponder over it...Dollar rates are so high now...and I think it'll cost me double...BUT, if I convinced my bro to share the domain with me...that would be really nice...maybe now, I'll stick to freeservers or I could some domain owners to host me....:glazed:

    Well, that's the decision then...(hey! I made this decision in just a couple of hours...neat...)

    But thank you for the opinion guys!!! :D
