witching hour thoughts[0]:

memories flood back to when dns registration by the nsf and the matter of registering a domain name, submitting paperwork, and a hefty fee in the range of $200-$300usd. being an eccentric visionary i saved up my meager wages over a year to purchase a couple of domains that today in a market obsessed with identity would allow me to retire comfortably. why did i let them go? what happened to the original "good idea" of claiming these? or did the creature of self-doubt take hold and whisper in my ear that "this will never amount to anything"?

@mutefall same here. In 1992 I registered my first domain with the InterNIC. It was olympus.com. I let it go somewhere in 1994-1995. In 1996 the company registered it.

@david mine was flood.com among others i won't make mention of in polite company. in those days it was similar to betting on futures. if one were to say register sex.com and sat on it. that investment would have paid off. hindsight and all that :)
