It feels good to be a failure!

reserved domains

The following tidbit is not going to change your life, but it’s good to know:

If you browse to example.com, you’ll see the following:

“You have reached this web page by typing "example.com", "example.net", or "example.org" into your web browser. These domain names are reserved for use in documentation and are not available for registration. See RFC 2606, Section 3.”

And the RFT says:

“3. Reserved Example Second Level Domain Names
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) also currently has the following second level domain names reserved which can be used as examples.
example.com
example.net
example.org”
