Hi Leon,

yep Ive often wondered that too, it was all a chance, Id actually registered datastream.com only to get very threatening letters from Bird & Bird solicitors and they threatened me so much that I dropped it, but at the same time just registered transcom.com as it was the first name that came into my head.

The company I used was Exnet in london, and then Demon Internet (cliff Stanford) just as he was starting, then did all the rest, ie, .co / .net etc.

Luck I suppose, but I could have registered anything then, but at £500 a pop, bit too much.

At £500 a go a lot have people would have seen it as a big risk, well done you, I think its still possible to get innovative names, I recently picked up biofuelcell.co.uk you never know, just like in back to the future, I would love to put a banana skin in my car instead of fuel at 109.9 per litre.

Do you still hand reg domains?

Kind Regards
Leon
