Read this in another forum tonight. I couldn't believe it.

Full Story (http://thewhir.com/features/subdomain.cfm)

"Update" - Here's more information from the patent office. It's not exactly what the other story talks about, in my view.

From what I understand from the patent... its sayin that the use of the wildcard within DNS to retrieve and distribute the requested information is now a patent?

I will have to read it again after I wake up a bit more. Looks as if the use of framsets to display content protected under this patent. .... hah. well. like I said I will read it over again once I get some coffee in me.
