Homesteading

I was on the internet in the early '90s. Back then, domain names were easy to find. I know some people make money selling domain names, as they are intellectual property, with rights and real value. I wish I had reserved a few domain names, created a few websites, as I don't think it would've been hard, and it would've been lucrative. My interests were elsewhere. The internet will continue to evolve, I'm sure, as may my interests, but since I have no plans to change my name, I thought it might be a good idea to create a blog with my name in the title using the increasingly popular Google provider, so that friends, colleagues, and whomever else can visit. Stake out the name, my name, as it were--homesteading.
