I got very lucky in finding my Domain name for the site: I had an unusual request in DragonFlyEye.Net. But as this very interesting post reveals, the Domain Name Service of the WWW is getting at least as crowded as the IP Address market has.
It’s funny how these things work out.? I’ve actually had people pinging my site through Whois.net, so I know people have been checking it out, though for what purpose I cannot imagine.? A few years ago, before I was blogging and promoting my site like I do now, I searched for dragonflyeye in Google, and did find one person who coincedentally had an email address with that username, but that was it.
What makes the above-linked article so interesting is the numbers and the specific combinations that he used.? He must have put rather a lot of time in to the research for this article.? In particular, the Domain Name gripe sites with clever names such as microsoftsucks.com.
The former address, by the way, does not work.? It has been registered by a group called The Secaucus Group, who apparently maintains a DNS Server on Sucks500.com.? We may presume that this is a company in the business of registering unfortunate DNS names for the benefit of the offended company, presumably for a fee.? Still, damned entertaining stuff. . .
