The reason for the delay is that, when you type in a Web address, your computer passes it along to another computer, which in turn passes it along to another computer, and so on through as many as 5 computers before it finally reaches the work station of a disgruntled U.S. Postal Service employee, who throws it in the trash. -- Dave BerryWordPress nameserver resolving my domainhttps://jonathonbalogh.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/domain-jonathonbalogh-wordpress-com-resolved-by-wordpress-com-name-servers1.pngIf this doesn't make any sense then consider yourself lucky. Those who understand DNS are rarely capable of conversation, preferring instead to mutter their archaic tongue in softened whispers of loving adulation as they gingerly stroke the keys of the nearest net-connected terminal, the hypnotic vigil shattered only by their occasional petrifying, witch-like cackle - signalling the latest TTL expiry.WordPress nameservers resolving jonathonbalogh.wordpress.comhttps://jonathonbalogh.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/cloudflare-dns-configuration-for-a-wordpress-com-blog-a-records.pngAny fool can use a computer.
