Comments on: Free AOL Disks, Domain Names and Kicking it Old School! http://zacjohnson.com/free-aol-disks-domain-names-and-kicking-it-old-school/ Let the Reign Begin Thu, 07 Aug 2008 18:44:42 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Lisa Irby http://zacjohnson.com/free-aol-disks-domain-names-and-kicking-it-old-school/#comment-49979 Lisa Irby Tue, 15 Apr 2008 16:46:54 +0000 http://zacjohnson.com/free-aol-disks-domain-names-and-kicking-it-old-school/#comment-49979 Zac, this brings back memories. I registered my first name in 1998 but months before that I had like 15 websites on freeyellow.com, geocities, tripod, and angelfire. Ugh! My sites looked so bad. No tables (and of course no CSS) - just a bunch of colored text with flashing graphics. It was HORRID. I agree with "Not John Chow" because the costs back then were high. When I finally did break down and get my own domain I think I paid like $15/month for 30MB of space or something crazy. And thank goodness I don't get any more those AOL CD's in the mail anymore! I used to use them to play frisbee. :) Zac, this brings back memories.

I thought it was kick ass back in 1998 and now I could make the whole layout in like 15 minutes and it would look better....LMAO. It has been a cool ride and it is amazing how things have changed. Crazy but I was the FIRST customer for GOTO.com which then became Overture and now has become Yahoo advertising. Technology used to change evryday back then, you really had to stay up on what was going on in so many different fields. I could go on and on...wouldn;t change it for anything.

Now the costs are down and I am just getting started. It is great to hear the success of ten years in the industry! It was the cost years ago that stopped me from starting.

Yo Zac,
