Related to discussion about domain industry in general, I stumbled on the weirdest business the other day trying to go to a website name and instead typing crun.com.
It leads to https://venture.com/domains/ https://venture.com/domains/, which is... a startup that rents out high visibility domains to others, with discount plans available where the price increases exponentially with the assumption that your startup does as well.
One of those things where you're not sure if it's satire at first.
- citrusui 7y agoInteresting quote that I found from Venture's homepage: > The problem with not having the .com of your name is that it signals weakness. Unless you’re so big that your reputation precedes you, a marginal domain suggests you’re a marginal company. - PAUL GRAHAM, Y Combinator
