<nettime> usa.gov -> nssg.gov |
searching for the Declaration of Independence, i first typed us.gov and no such domain. then, www.usa.gov, and something (in my sense) unsual happened. there was a domain: http://www.usa.gov which was automatically redirected to the website: http://www.nssg.gov/ which is a site for the 'U.S. Commission on National Security /21st Century'. oddly enough, the website is broken when i try to view it on a mac-clone with the IE 5 browser. the entire site is broken beyond repair, with no e-mail messages from the message board coming up when clicked, no reports, etc. so i am not sure what this is about, except that it is associated with the NSF/National Science Foundation and the Hart-Rudman Commission, and its navigation includes: Insitutional Reform, Securing the National Homeland, and Recapitalizing America's Science and Education. in any case, found this interesting, that for the domain usa.gov this should be where it is redirected, secret, in a sense, in that it forwards to this place which seems like a particular approach to policy, and that the issues of National Security, Sci-edu and Recapitalization via Institutional Reform are where things seemed to be headed for this project, if only it could be viewed. 1- thus: usa.gov equals --> nssg.gov, or: The National Security Study Group (NSSG-DOM) 1931 Jefferson Davis Hwy,CM3, Suite632 Arlington, VA 22202 Domain Name: NSSG.GOV Status: Active Administrative Contact: Nemceff, Jonathan P. (JPN1) (?03) p02-41?6 (FAX)(?03) p02-43p6 NEMCEFF@NSSG.NCR.GOV 2- which is connected, by domain, to ncr.gov: Washington Headquarters Services (NCR-DOM) 1166 Defense The Pentagon Washington, DC 20301 Domain Name: NCR.GOV Status: Active Administrative Contact: Schilling, Eric D. (EDS) (?03) p14-0626 (FAX)(?03) p14-6p1p ESCHILLING@REF.WHS.MIL Domain servers in listed order: NS1.WHS.MIL 140.186.9?.263 NS2.WHS.MIL 140.186.9?.? Record last updated on 01-Dec-00. 3- anyone have any idea of what NCR.GOV domain is, or who it is owned by? it just shows up as the WHS.MIL domain, but ncr.com is closely associated with .gov services and has the other .com domain. trying to understand the domain structure, but all i can find is that usa.gov goes to pentagon.gov IN ANY CASE; domains for thought... hello those in inner echelonia, human being #4,102,033,010 matter, energy, and in-formation the electromagnetic internetwork http://www.electronetwork.org/ # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
