Tripod vs. geocities.
I cannot use anymore my Geocities site at Yahoo for all my needs,
therefore i have set up another site at Tripod at the advice of one of
the researchers who was complaining about the sluggishness of Geo and
prefering Tripod.
How can one, if it's possible at all, change the username and name of
a site at tripod if so wanted?

Hi there,

Tripod say it isn't possible:

Q. Can my member name be changed?  
 
A. Technically, no. Your member name, once it's chosen, is stored in
several places on our servers. That makes changing the name pretty
much impossible. If you really want a new member name, you'll need to
delete your current member name and sign up with Tripod again. It's
just one more reason to choose your member name with care!

Of course you can signup using a new name, and then upload your site
to the new account.


Search strategy:
I browsed the help files at Tripod
