It seems the Costco website (www.costco.com) is down. The site says "temporarily unavailable" and when I searched to see if it was just my own connection (not likely since I get the temp page), I found out that there was a recall on their Kirkland Cookies (in Canada).
Costco is warning its customers that cookies bought at its stores may contain pieces of metal.
How can cookies take down a website? It can happen to any website if there is a newsbreaking story. And even the best servers may not be able to handle the load.

Changing Addresses is never easy. Same for email addresses. The basic steps are the same. Notify everyone, and if you can, setup a temporary forward for those 'a little slow' to update their records.

If you are looking to increase sales for your products or services, it's a good idea to 'comment' on recent news items. Was there a security breach on a website? Write about, and explain what steps you take to prevent something like that. A news item on Cloud Computing? Explain how you see the benefits (or negatives).
Here is a nice example of using a news item for marketing: While We Wait For The Female Viagra-like Pill Posted in 'response to an AP report the other day - FDA: 'Female Viagra' falls short.

In the past, I've posted about scams related to Domain Name Registrations, like the bogus invoices from Domain Registry of America. Well the FTC in the US has won a judegment against one of these companies, Internet Listing Service. (I don't know if they are related to DROA, as there are many aliases used in these scams).
In June 2008, the FTC charged Toronto-based Internet Listing Service with sending domain name owners fake invoices that instructed them to pay an annual Web site listing fee or sign up for a search engine optimization service. Finally, in August 2010, the case is closed. The settlement issued a suspended judgment of $4.3 million, but since the defendants cannot pay up, they will turn over $10,000, the FTC said.
