So 25 years ago, some smart guy thinks "hmmmmm this internet thing may take off, I am going to register me a domain name......"
Pretty much everything is available, and he chooses SYMBOLICS.COM
Doh! |
But he had the last laugh because just on the basis of it being the oldest .com, he recently sold it for what's speculated to be 6-figures. I know the guy who bought it and while the figure is non-disclosure, knowing him he paid a pretty penny for it considering there is only one OLDEST domain and he has it...cool for collector's sake.
I have a 1990 domain, 20 years old now as it was regged in Feb 1990, SynNet.com. It's for sale for mid $x,xxx if anyone wants it.
