Mainstream Digital Publication (domainnameindispute.com)
Media & Digital Publishing
Jan. 2012–Present

DomainNameInDispute is a new mainstream digital publication with an emphasis on, but not limited to technology, arts, and lifestyle. This publication has been planned for years, fully functional prototype developed in January, and launch has been delayed since February due to a civil domain name dispute. Someone is obstructing our justice and we are still seeking legal representation.

DomainNameInDispute is powered by a new Content Management System (CMS), which is an upgraded version of the Weed Connection CMS. Additionally, the new CMS and DomainNameInDispute are integrated with innovative new media and video publishing technology. We are always producing, publishing, and expanding @RussellRope and @WeedConnection.
