Dizasta 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2005 interesting piece of trivia. Didn't know domain registrations existed since 1985 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ploforia 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 Interesting, considering the internet makes possible the technology that the book 1984 was based - A communications system capable of gathering audio and video from peoples homes and public places - delivering the info to a central HQ - and filtering out the members of society who didn't agree with the political machine. Strange parallel that the earliest year people were registering domain names was right about 1984.- also the same year Apple unveiled that commercial based on the book 1984 that was pulled after it aired once because it was so creepyApple - First Personal computers1984 - Book outlining governmental control of populations using centralized communications systems to monitor thier activities.Apple opens pandora's box of personal computing making possible a future centralized communication system - year 1984Apple = Evil?Adam and Eve eat of a forbidden fruit and thereby become concious of the struggle of good and evil - the forbidden fruit?? An apple.Put that one in your pipe and smoke it..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouachiski 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2005 I think it was interesting to see who where some of the first companys to register domains. some of them you wouldnt have guesed like Fluke and TTI. Kind of interesting that these are the bigest companys in there field now. Gues that is what being ahead of the game will get you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

l337 Nurse Pedestrian 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2005 I could of sworn there were domains over than that. I thought I just saw one today that claimed to have existed back in the 1970's. I don't know the URL, but all I know about it, is that it's some web hosting service or something.Hmm, that's interesting though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
