Sara McKee and the moving URLs

[Hinchingbrooke School <Hinchingb-pess@BBCNC.ORG.UK>]

Sara McKee points out a common problem which my own home pages are and will
again soon be facing - service providers and directories change, taking the
addresses of your cherished pages with you!
I think I read in MacUser recently of a piece of software which tracked
these changes but I can't lay my hands on the article. Can anyone else?
 In the distance I gather there are plans to change the whole system of
URLs to attach addresses more permanently to files/pages rather than to
where they are (after all you don't change your name when you move to
another room...) but that's not on the cards yet.
Those with the problem of moving their own e-mail address might like to
know of a life-time address / reposting system - more details at
http://pobox.com/
Could be a life saver for those who don't want to spend their lives
attached to a single service provider!
