in thread New to Perl Monks

but by definition perlmonks is not a site meant for commerce... it's a non profit organization... perlmonks.net... I got no qualms w/ that one

    So what network infrastructure function does the perlmonks web site serve? That's what .net should be for.

      Perlmonks.net allows me to read Perlmonks at work. Some fool here at work left the Perlmonks full page chat up overnight, shortly after some other fool was using the LAN to serve Bit Torrent (one word?) files. The administration decided to close up the LAN a bit, and Perlmonks.org is now blocked because it's a "high traffic website".

      And while I'm the only one here at work (that I know of) that reads Perlmonks (thus affirming my status as the first fool) I'd never be daft enough to abuse the LAN to serve high traffic files.
