Lazlow.co.uk

A few years back, I started looking for some additional domains to sit alongside slickhouse.com on the world wide web. I purchased alternative tld's such as .info, .net and .co.uk - later cancelling the former.

I also came across lazlow.net - ideal for me as I use the name Lazlow in many forms, including online gaming. The name Lazlow comes from the Radio DJ famous for his sound production and voice roles in the Grand Theft Auto series of games.

The site situated at lazlow.net has been fairly static since day one, with very few changes. In the near future, I'm planning on updating it as a central hub for my online presence, linking to all the sites I've either created or feature on.

The domain lazlow.co.uk at the time, was taken by a UK band and was due for renewal in March 2009. Due to Nominet's rules, .co.uk domains only become available after 60 days of expiry. So, earlier this month I registered it with GoDaddy and have forwarded it to the .net domain. Behold, lazlow.co.uk

Virgin Media lowering cost of XXL package

Virgin Media has announced that they're lowering the cost of their 50MB XXL Broadband Package - to £28 (inc. phone line) and £38 (exc. phone line).

But that's not all - they're also trialling upload speeds of 10MB! Considering my current 20MB XL Broadband reaches a little over 700KB and the XXL package currently hits 1.5MB - this is a vast improvement, something that many Virgin Media customers have been calling out for ages.

If they roll this out with the 50MB package soon, then we'll definately be upgrading. A few months back I was considering BeThere who offer a Pro package with 24MB down/2.5MB up - but Virgin's new plans dwarf the best that the ADSL providers offer.
