8.:30 AM EST Wednesday, April 30, 2008: Network Solutions screwed up. They registered TechnologyInvestor.com, the original name of this site and the way most people get to it.

Then it expired. Network Solutions forgot to tell me it was expiring.

I've been on the phone with them in India for over two hours today and over six hours on fax and phone yesterday. They really are hopeless. I'll get this up and running if it kills me -- which it just may.

Never ever do business with Network Solutions.

I'm not amused.

Apologies. Come back tomorrow.

This column is about my personal search for the perfect investment. I don't give investment advice. For that you have to be registered with regulatory authorities, which I am not. I am a reporter and an investor. I make my daily column -- Monday through Friday -- freely available for three reasons: Writing is good for sorting things out in my brain. Second, the column is research for a book I'm writing called "In Search of the Perfect Investment." Third, I encourage my readers to send me their ideas, concerns and experiences. That way we can all learn together. My email address is . You can't click on my email address. You have to re-type it . This protects me from software scanning the Internet for email addresses to spam. I have no role in choosing the Google ads on this site. Thus I cannot endorse, though some look interesting. If you click on a link, Google may send me money. Please note I'm not suggesting you do. That money, if there is any, may help pay Michael's business school tuition.
