Is there a defined protocol in the DNS for locating information about
(say) MegaWidget Corporation in the top level domain servers?  It would
appear that i otherwise have to call someone in said organisation and
find out what they are registered as.  [e.g. megawidget.com, MWC.com
etc] 

I can't believe i have to make my own databases from the monthly
updates...
