Happy 4th of July to all my American readers around the world, I hope you are having a fantastic day and getting to spend some quality time with your friends and family.
As many are celebrating this date, I thought why not review some historic dates with the 100 Oldest Dot Com Domain Names and Who Owns them?
We all know about Symbolics.com which was acquired by entrepreneur and domain name investor Aron Meystedt, now you can see the dates of the next 99 domain names, when they were registered, and who currently owns them.
Which domain name, do you like and would have registered any of these back in 35/36 years ago?
