Re: Domains registered so far

Re: Domains registered so far

.co.uk's are nothing without the .com.

.com is everything. Guess that's why picnicbroadband.com was snapped up.

Re: Domains registered so far

com domains are business related and anything thats .co.uk as an example is specific to a country.

They all have there own benefit's.

One domain missing from the main list is _www.picnicusers.co.uk unless Im blind as a bat?

Re: Domains registered so far

Good luck to them but customers/users/interested parties would rather use an independent forum like picnicusers.co.uk and get independent advice anyday of the week.

And by allowing an independent forum to run will only give pontential and current users a sign that Picnic broadband has nothing to hide.

Re: Domains registered so far

I think we can safely assume now, that by their furious snap up of domains in the last few days, confirms Picnic is the name of this project. Obvioulsy they want the Internet to be silenced and I think is the total wrong way of doing things.

Re: Domains registered so far

Totally agree with you. Its a means to silence individuals and shows that they intend to control all aspects of the Picnic brand.
