- usefulcat 5y agoIn a way, one of the more prescient things I have done in my life was to register the .org for my surname in 1999. I wasn't the first, but my timing was good. I do use it, so it's not just sitting idle.
- stevekemp 5y agoI registered "steve.org.uk" in April 1999. steve.com and steve.org were registered in 1995, and 1997 respectively. So I guess I was very slow! Happily after moving from the UK to Finland I did manage to grab steve.fi, which had expired within the first year of my relocation.
