KilosMaaz, coffee please13:45
MaazKilos: Okay13:45
KilosMaaz, and grandpa13:45
Maazai! Kilos headache again?13:45
Kiloscharl_, you got time to explain something to me13:46
Kilosenglish not geek13:46
charl_hi Kilos 13:46
charl_sure thing, throw it13:46
charl_gooi should i say :)13:46
Kiloswhat is a domain and whats the diffs between that and a site13:47
Kilosi got a site at weebly and it keeps offering a domain13:47
Kilosthen i looked here for a freedomain thing http://www.prchecker.info/web-hosting/best-free-domain-name-services/13:48
Kilosbut dont know what one would do with a domain and a site13:49
MaazCoffee's ready for charl_ and Kilos!13:49
KilosMaaz, ty13:49
MaazYou are welcome Kilos13:49
charl_ok, here goes13:50
charl_a domain is something like google.com13:50
Kilossjoe13:50
charl_if you type that domain into your browser, a site opens13:51
Kiloswhat does one do with a domain13:51
charl_that site will, in this case, be google search because that's the site that lives at google.com13:51
Kilosoh so you have a site in a domain13:51
charl_a site could also live under the domain13:51
charl_for example you could have a site under example.com/kilos13:52
Kilosand other peeps also have sites in that domain13:52
charl_a site is just a collection of web pages, usually maintained by the same person or the same group of people13:52
charl_yes i could have a site under example.com/charl13:52
charl_and there could be another site under the root of example.com13:52
Kilosok13:52
Kilosso why would a person want a domain13:53
charl_you could also have a subdomain like kilos.example.com or charl.example.com13:53
charl_just because it makes it easy to find your site13:53
charl_these days most people just use google to find stuff in any case13:53
Kiloshuh?13:53
charl_so having a nice domain doesn't matter so much13:53
Kilosis the diffs just in the address13:54
charl_yup13:54
charl_that's all it's about, is the address13:54
Kilosok13:54
charl_but you could also have more stuff like email, xmpp and other services like irc13:54
charl_for example, if you connect to freenode you go to irc.freenode.net for example13:54
Kilosbut if i have a site i can surely shorten the link13:54
charl_or i connect directly to a specific server in germany which is kornbluth.freenode.net13:54
Kilosand somehow let google know about it13:54
charl_eh, google should automatically find stuff if you like to it from other places13:55
charl_you could use url shorteners too13:55
charl_but these days people usually don't care about that so much anymore13:55
charl_if you have a company it makes sense to have a domain in the country where you're based13:55
charl_but it's more a facade than anything else, just gives you that "corporate presence"13:55
Kilosoh13:56
charl_for example, a company wants everyone to send email from an address @theirdomain.nl for example13:56
charl_it just makes it look coherent and professional13:56
charl_like you are officially representing the company, it comes across better than mailing @gmail.com13:56
charl_in reality it doesn't really make much of a technical difference, if the mail arrives then who cares13:56
Kilosyeash13:57
charl_these days a lot of people just use forwarders and other fancy stuff to achieve the same effect13:57
charl_but it's like if you want to contact vodacom, you expect to mail someone @vodacom.co.za, not @gmail.com13:57
Kilosoh now its sinking in13:57
charl_same if you want to go to vodacom's website13:58
charl_you would much rather go to vodacom.co.za than somevaguenonsense.example.com/someotherthing/andetc13:58
Kilosthats surely for big companies13:59
charl_yes exactly13:59
charl_you get people like me who host everything on a vps and need my own domain for that too13:59
charl_like i use charl.eu for that purpose, it is nice and short, easy to remember13:59
charl_and it's very easy to tell people over the telephone13:59
charl_if somebody asks me what my address is it is simply <my first name>@<my first name>.eu13:59
charl_but most people don't need to go that far, an @gmail.com or @outlook.com or even @yahoo.com is good enough14:00
charl_all that i would not recommend is using your ISP's mailbox like @ziggo.nl for example14:00
charl_because then if you change ISP your mail address also changes14:00
Kilosi want things as simple as possible14:01
Kilosand just a small free site with a shopping cart14:01
charl_in south africa you _can_ register a free domain at www.za.net14:02
charl_then you can get something like kilos.za.net or kilos.za.org if you want (if it's available)14:02
charl_but then you still need to configure dns, etc14:02
Kilosdo they give you space for nothing14:02
charl_no only a domain14:02
charl_then you must point it at your web host where your site lives14:02
Kilosagain im lost14:02
charl_http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_registrar14:03
Kilosis a domain only a link to somewhere14:03
charl_http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service14:03
charl_yes exactly14:03
Kilosnot actually like a server somewhere14:03
charl_exactly14:03
charl_za.net is a domain registrar14:03
Kiloswhew14:04
charl_then you point it at a hosting service14:04
Kilosok14:04
charl_the above wikipedia links give in-depth detail14:04
Kiloslets say i build a shopping site at weebly14:04
Kilosthen i get a domain and link the site to it?14:04
charl_yes14:05
charl_you will also need a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_hosting_service14:05
charl_so you register a domain, point it at a dns hosting service14:05
charl_and then you configure your dns at the dns hosting service to point to your hosting provider14:06
Kiloswhew that enough for today ty. unhappy head day14:06
charl_so you have three components you will need to get organised14:06
charl_shame sorry to hear :(14:06
charl_hope you feeling better soon! :)14:06
Kilosits part of my life man. 14:06
charl_nah but still14:06
Kilosjust some days worse14:06
charl_i just broke my arm two weeks ago14:07
Kilosmainly after doing physical stuffs14:07
charl_it isn't even that serious but it upsets your routine14:07
Kilosya must be near plaster off time14:07
charl_got it removed this morning!14:07
Kilosaha14:07
Kilosnow its thinner than the other one14:07
charl_yes just came back from the hospital before coming on irc14:08
charl_not really, but my arm did get stiff14:08
Kilosnurse it for a while14:08
charl_so now i need to exercise it14:08
charl_but it's nice being able to turn my wrist again so i can type semi-normally14:08
Kiloslotsa typing14:08
Kiloshehe14:08
charl_it was so much problems not being able to type14:08
charl_and it was my right arm which is also my dominant arm14:08
Kiloseish14:08
charl_so i had to do everything with my "weak" hand14:08
charl_not so nice, but of well, it's something that passes so not something i want to complain about too hard14:09
Kiloslol14:09
charl_i think i am going to go out and buy some turkish food shortly14:09
Kilosty for the help14:09
charl_i am feeling like some donner kebab14:09

Kiloskebabs are food14:10
Kilosno man14:10
Kilosstop the links14:10
charl_it comes from a rotating spit14:10
Kilosthey all tons to read14:10
charl_super popular with turks14:10
charl_Doner kebab (/ˈdɒnər kəˈbæb/, /ˈdoʊnər/; Turkish: döner or döner kebap, [døˈneɾ̝̊ keˈbap]) is a Turkish dish made of meat cooked on a vertical spit, normally lamb but also a mixture of veal or beef with these, or sometimes chicken. The dish is also widely known by its Arabic name "shawarma" or the Greek name "gyros".14:11
Kiloslol i remember eating shawarmas in durbs14:11
Kilosthey cut bits of meat of a rotating leg on a spit14:12
Kilosoff14:12
charl_yes14:12
charl_that is it exactly14:12
charl_except here they put it in a bread (broodje doner) or a turkish pizza (lahmakun)14:13
charl_or they even make a "kapsalon" out of it14:13
charl_lahmacun sorry14:13
charl_it has a soft dough and you roll it up like a pancake14:13
charl_delicious14:13
Kilosif i member right shawarmas are meat in a foldup kinda pastry14:14
Kiloslike 2 flat round slices of bread glued together aover about 3/4 of it14:14
