We've watched IBM register a number of new domain names over the last two weeks with growing disbelief. When we saw DEATHLORDS.COM our interest was aroused, and then we noticed it had registered THEPEOPLESEYEBROW.COM, which certainly made us sit up. SMOKEYSPALACE.COM and SMOKEYSPALACE2000.COM were interesting registrations too. But the latest registration really caused us to sit up. BLUEBUDDHA.COM is an exotic name and while IBM is Big Blue, it is surely not buddhistic. Is the whole corporation smoking waccy baccy, we wonder? ®
