The Internic site is slow! I hate using it. For some reason my site is much faster, even though it's calling the Internic server to get the info. Their CMS is the bottleneck apparently.

Also I just added a feature. It keeps a history of names you've looked up. Makes brainstorming more productive. A feature I didn't know I wanted until I had my own server running.

I could definitely get used to this. We just signed up whois.userland.com. I'm going to do some brainstorming on other domain names that might be nice for this service.
