idea…
October 3rd, 2004let me begin with stating:
I sometimes don’t really like this thing. It makes me think too much.
I’ve got this idea that could potentially be pitched to comcast. A local “root” domain, .cast. On it we have all sorts of services. Game servers, forums, public and private USENET groups (on the cast.* structure, of course). Every customer gets one .cast root domain for $10/month, hosted on pre-built “web hosting” linux “distributions”. They get up to 5 mailboxes on that domain, out of the seven they already get (using comcast’s current webmail structure, if necessary).
This can all be automated. We can provide other services, as well, like sourceforge provides. Need a t-shirt made? I bet cafepress would pay $10/year to have their domain on the .cast root. Talked about targetted audience - they hit all of comast’s clients, I’m sure.
I’d just want to make sure certain domain names are reserved. ![]()
what do you think?
