Hello,
When did you register your first domain?
What year? Why?
When did you register your first domain?
What year? Why?
I remember webtv! They had the best chatrooms! My first reg was early last year for a business 1UpPerformance selling high performance engine parts and accessories. It didn't pan out and i just kept buying names.My first was in 1995 when I was using webtv and I got a letter from and attorney saying you can't do that so I freaked and handed it over. I probably had a few others but can't remember, let them drop.
I started again in 1998 and reged a domain and lost it in a UDRP, never thought it was fair but had some big money taking me on and I didn't want to spend what it would take to fight it. If it were today I would fight it.
I owned the name long before the company even existed, years.
I guess my oldest now is my business domain and it was reged in 1999.
Honestly I used webtv for years and didn't really get into computers until 1998, or 1999 somewhere around then.
Ah yeah the chatrooms, I used to live in the #webtvtech room. Remember all the different IRC modules?I remember webtv! They had the best chatrooms!

Now that's awesomeYesterday
2001.
I was on a writer's forum, and someone noted that writers should register their own full names, so I did. It sat fallow until 2004, when I decided to create a page to promote a book I published.
I'm no great webmaster even now, but here is my first webpage, done on Yahoo's ridiculous website tools.
All those links are deader than a doornail.
Looks like it would fit nicely on a mobile device. You were ahead of your time in web design !
and 1999 for me.
