Doc Searls - and everyone else, it seems - has gone completely bonkers over Verisign grabbing incorrectly entered urls and redirecting to their search pages. So.... let's see. I type an URL wrong. Would I rather see a search page, or a lame 404 page? Exactly why all the fuss over this? If you don't want to use their search, retype the url. And hey, that's exactly what you would have to do if they weren't redirecting. Sheesh - get a grip gang.
