[geek.g17.com works] geek subdomain - geek/talk: Signature-free discourse for serious web publishers

Steve,

any chance you could setup a subdomain of geekvillage (or any of your domains) so that instead of typing http://www.geekvillage.com/forums I just have to type geek.geekvillage.com or something like that. The key is the subdomain needs to be easy to type AND unique.

The reason? I don't use favorites. I bookmark things but then I forget and for whatever reason I just don't use the things. I just type the url's in my address bar and to get to Geekvillage I just type "http://www.geek" and then down a few times and the correct url of "http://www.geekvillage.com/forums" appears and I press enter.

Well it'd be neat if all I had to do was type "geek" and then Ie would finish the url up for me. Maybe I'm lazy but I figure it's a reasonable request.

Your wish is my command.

BTW, the owner of geek.com just joined here. Neat site

Try this. It's very short and will get you here:

geek.g17.com

Natch, the regular typoes are mine at last

HTH
