Catslaves gone?
"Christina Websell" wrote:
"Jeanne Hedge" wrote in message .. . I'm still confused. Is Tweed trying to access the Catslaves Yahoo group (the one with the mailing list) or the Catslaves website (which apparently has a defunct domain name, and people are trying to find a new home to resurrect it at)? I've always accessed the Catslaves Yahoo group by searching on "catslaves" finding the webpage and using the link on there. I've found another way of accessing it now, but it's a bit longwinded. Ah, I misunderstood you before, but I think I understand now. If you haven't already, you should bookmark http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/catslaves/ so that it's in your "Favorites" or "Bookmarks" list. You've probably noticed that others who have posted to this thread have been making a strong distinction between the Yahoo group named "Catslaves", and Karen and John's cat website, which is similarly called "catslaves". That's because they are independent entities. Yahoo has a "groups" feature, which Vicky used in 2001 to create a chat and picture archive group called "Catslaves", named after the term we commonly use in RPCA. In 2003, Karen and John registered the "catslaves.org" domain, where they set up a website with cat related information. As with most websites, it had links to various other sites, one of which was the catslaves Yahoo group. Karen and John noticed that traffic to catslaves.org had gotten very low, so they decided not to renew the "catslaves.org" domain. Keeping a domain name typically costs an annual fee. This had nothing to do with the Catslaves Yahoo group, which was why we were a bit confused about the problem you were reporting. |
