Who created this site?
Yafaau's dad(that's me). I do webdesign in my free time. The blog is not my work, not to mention the many modifications in it.
 

How did you get the domain names?
2003-2004 Yafaau.Org came into existence with the kind help from Mr and Mrs Kit Chambers. 2005 Google® provided us with ads which generated some money thus I took more domains; Yafaau.com, Yafaau.net and Yafaau.Info 
 
How did you manage to get such nice phone numbers?
I see myself as a very lucky person. Its a long story. In Dhiraagu's(Our Mobile service provider) words, they mistakenly gave me my old number(7727**) which I used for more than six months. They wanted the number back and they offered me 7776688 and 336688 instead. So.. I agreed happily

Can I link to your site?
Yes, you are free to link to http://www.yafaau.info or http://www.yafaau.info/blog but please do send an email so that I can keep a record. But please do not hotlink, it will eat up my bandwidth.
 

What happened to Yafaau.Org?
Well... I must say I was a bit careless with renewal(I dont want to blame anyone) but I wasnt able to get a Credit Card to pay for it. It was re-registered by a domain collection group thinking that we were an organisation an hour before I tried to re-register. So Yafaau.org is not ours anymore. My Google® payment did provide me with some extra cash which is why our new domain is Yafaau.Info, Yafaau.Com & Yafaau.Net (Update: thanks to Godaddy.com, I got Yafaau.org back)
 
Why Yafaau.Info ?
Yafaau.org resembles an organisation, which we aren't. Our website contains information about Yafaau. I guess Yafaau.info is much more appropriate for an informational website.
