Marina Information
I checked this out. It appears to be for real and there are easier ways to
harvest email addresses for the spammers. It's these folks who appear to be solid: http://www.activecenter.com/ It's one of those "Why are they doing this?" things. No ads or other source of income. OTOH they already have the infrastructure to do it without much investment so it could well be a nice hobby contribution. There is way too much security for the purpose. You have to register, get and email confirmation, click to confirm, etc. Maybe that's necessary now to keep troublemakers out of their servers but the site is only going to become useful if a LOT of people join and round out the very minimal information that is currently there, most of which could be found in other ways. The sign up procedure will keep a lot of people away. I certainly would have never bothered with it if it wasn't people right in my backyard. Worth a look and encouragement but I'm skeptical that it will ever take off unless they make it more accessible and get more useful information into it themselves. -- Roger Long |
