          every time I go looking for a domain name, I start feeling like they're all taken and then I find one. ...but it's never been the first one.

                    When it comes to recursive website names, I'm pretty sure they're always going to be available.. www.wwwdotwwwdotcomdotcom.com www.wwwdotwwwdotwwwdotcomdotcomdotcom.com

                              My domain, BradyKelly.NET isn't just about the domain qualifier, it's what I do. I wonder how long MS will take to get upset over me registering a CC (sort of like an LLC) with that name.

                                Slashdot's name was chosen for a similar reason: "It's h-t-t-p slash slash slashdot dot org"

                                  I think it was named in honour of the old "Got Milk?" ads.
