Hi,

Signing in wasn't required yesterday but they must have changed it.

It's pretty easy to sign up to read their site.

You might want to do it.

I did some time ago and I don't think I've received any spam mail
from them.

I refuse to signup to read news articles, especially from an outfit like the NY Times. But I digress.

Nice article, seems us Aussies get it without having to sign in. We must be special or something!

Found the problem - NYTimes requires cookies to be enabled. Among the few that require that crap, but I digress again :lol:

In my view, the jist of the article should come to no surprise to longtime domainers.

However, many businesses are more recently getting up to speed on how important branding is not just for basic promotion, but in diffentiating one's product from others in a global marketplace; raising the bar to entry by competitors.

I Got in

The link opened for me. I'm an Aussie living in India, so location isn't the issue. Must be to do with cookes.
The article. typical of big brother trying to monopolise and keep Joe Blogs out of the picture.
