32. If given the choice between buying the url girls.com or cyberzine.com - which would you choose and why?
Ok so it was 1995 and internic opened up the ability to get your very own domain name. No one even knew about the web yet it was brand spankin new. You could get a domain registered free of charge. The catch was you could only have 1 domain per Person/Address. I was at BEST internet in mountain view workin with a Russian Guy named Jan we were discussing what I should register as my domain name. We were looking at what was available, and we were joking that Girls.com was available, Mind you very few if any people were doing porn at this point and there was no way to make money off of it yet. I said I wanted to do something new and special since this was the cyberage. I wanted to make a online magazine. So I registered Cyberzine.com in 1995 instead of girls.com BIG MISTAKE... LOL Also When I think of all the domains that were sitting there not registered yet I kick myself.. even when Webfather was making his digital land grab I still did not get it. By the time I finally understood the power of domains most of them had already been taken. Ahh well ya cant be right all the fucking time hahahaha.
