0505 - Summary/Objective
0506 -
050601 - Follow up ref SDS 7 3968, ref SDS 3 1913.
050602 -
050603 - While working on sending and fixing a message to test our Internet Web
050604 - site, I checked with Internic and found that our Web site has been
050605 - registered.
050606 -
050607 -     [On 980402 received invoice for domain name registration.
050608 -     ref SDS 8 0001
050609 -
050610 -  ..
050611 - This means we can use either welchco.com or the IP address to access
050612 - our records.
050613 -
050614 - I tried welchco.com to see what we would get and landed on a site for
050615 -
050616 -                           Welch
050617 -
050618 -     ...that has Welch vertically on the left margin in gothic letters
050619 -     that gave a very effective appearance.
050620 -
050621 -     I did not take time to study the page carefully, because I was
050622 -     focused on fixing the problem of accessing the site.  This page
050623 -     was fairly sparce and so indicated no apparent specific kinds of
050624 -     work or information was supported by the site.
050625 -
050626 -      ..
050627 -     Later, close examination showed it was actually some kind of
050628 -     computer support company.
050629 -
050630 -  ..
050631 - I had actually entered the domain name incorrectly.  I entered welch
050632 - instead of welchco.
050633 -
050634 - I did not recognize however that I had entered the name incorrectly.
050635 -
050636 - As a result I assumed someone had created or provided a sample Web
050637 - page format.  I thought possibly JPS provided a courtesy default home
050638 - page for customers to start them off.
050639 -
050640 - I entered a bookmark for the home page to facilitate access.
050641 -
050642 - Later, when I was able to get through to JPS, their engineer advised
050643 - we do not have a home page.   I then discovered having entered the
050644 - name incorrectly and so removed the bookmark.
