First!

Oh, wait a second.. There's like 737 posts before mine.. Oh well.. First time poster!

New to the site, not so new to domaining, but still consider myself a newbie. I bought my first domain sometime in the 90's. I think it was MoneyFAQ.com. I asked some hosting company to reserve it for me and they got it - I didn't. My next domain was Enterprise2000.com - that was the first and last time I put a "year" in a domain name. And then came Plataforma.com - little did I know that "plataforma" was a trademark owned by a Brazillian restaurant and they sent their lawyers after me. What I keep asking myself is.. why didn't I reserve Cars.com, Hotels.com, or SexyBabes.com? Hey, is SexyBabes.com available?

That was then, this is now. Have bought and sold several domains since then for several thousand. I now have a collection of over 400 domains I'm looking to offload. While I do a lot of web development work, domaining is more of a hobby.

Every domain I buy has a vision, a dream for the future that I simply don't have enough hours in the day to fulfill. My new dream is that someone here will share those visions and take my domain names to glory.

Looking forward to meeting you all and learning more about your dreams!

Well I'm the first mod.

Welcome to the community and I'm sure if we were psychic or could travel in time we would go back and hand-reg all the LL.coms, NN.coms, and gresat keywords like sex.com, tickets.com, travel.com, etc..

Eh, we can at least dream, can't we?

Your location says Boston and your flag is Canada - so which is it? Blue Jays or Red Sox?

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the warm welcome!

@draggar: Lol! It used to be the Expos - I grew up in Montreal. Have lived all over the place, mostly Boston. So it would have to be the Red Sox.
