Dropped the WWW

For a long time now I’ve included the www. in my domain name URLs. Recently… probably less than a month ago, I decided that I would get rid of the www and see how I liked it.

I have my server set up so that if you put the www in, it’ll still find my websites. So no one will get lost! But I really, really like having no www on my domain names. The www is just messy, more to type, and takes up too much room in the domain name.

So it’s gone! What do you think? Do you keep the www or do you drop it on your domains?

Now that my blogs are upgraded to the newest version of Wordpress, my emails are cleaned out (I have over 600 in my trash… ugh) and I’ve posted a post or two, time to go watch a movie and wish I had wall mounted home theater speakers to go along with my HDTV!

On this day..

    Well, i do agree its annoying sometimes but without the www domains seems to be confusing for some people. But its an advantage since one must not type much. Lol. Nice post.

    I personally prefer www over the http stuff. :) But I admit the entire thing confuses me. Can I go either way?

      Hi Kim.. when you type in a URL in the address bar in a browser, you can leave the http out too. I hardly ever type that in.. if I do, only because of habit!

      I wish it would be gone, too. Both the http and the www, they are kinda pointless anymore.
