We burned a lot of midnight oil on that company. It was a early data analytics type venture that was fun, but had a lot of long nights. We had an ethical spin from the ground up which, in hindsight, is not really the direction the Internet wanted to take.
It was a great bunch of folks though. We keep in touch now and then.
It was a small startup in, gosh, 1999-2000 when the net was a new frontier. Lessons were learned. It’s since been acquired and folded into other businesses. The domain is still in my name with a very basic static page.
Sounds like you fucked up, tbh, you should’ve bought the domain even if not intending to use it, just for brand safety
That’s why Research in Motion (the developer of the Blackberry) had to buy the domain “rim.jobs” when the .jobs tld was launched.
Ha, I had no idea!
I couldn’t agree more.
The cost in time and resources for all of that, vs just registering the domain in the first place. 🙄

Haha! Yeah we sure did.
