| | | If you haven't noticed already, Yahoo has taken over the WebRing ((URL) system alltogether. It now introduces its stripped-down navbar with limitations and advertising integrated, and limits management options as well. Those of you who followed my (...)

| | | | | I, for one, think that you will have a lot of supporters backing you on this subject. If you have any plans of making the complaint to Yahoo a 'petition' of sorts, let me know... I will gladly sign... Gene (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general)

| | | | | I tried to log on to edit my Ring site info a few days ago -it didn't work. I don't know how to do, I tried entering my old ring ID, site ID and password, but I didn't get anywhere. So, I just left it the way it is. It's bad, because I'm going to (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general)
