“Remember 1997? It was the height of the dot-com bubble. And everyone was registering domain names with unrealistic hopes and dreams of developing profitable, pure-play internet businesses.
I, too, drank the Kool-Aid and registered blunders.com, and many others. No business plan. No strategy. Just $8.95/domain name and unrealistic, stupid thinking.”

ICANN offers fix for domain name collisions -
