Free domain names

[Shawn Gossman]

Do any of you remember the free domain names co.cc and .tk by chance?

These two (among others) were popular TLDs that you could freely register in the early 2000s of the internet. I remember a lot of forums and blogs having them. I don't think I ever used them myself.

How about you all? Did any of you use them? If so, tell us how and was that site successful?

Ah yes, and sytes.com or something. Good times!

Didn't really knew what I was doing though.

Here's an even older one: Tripod and Lycos or Angelfire. I remember using them.

My first though was WebTV as I had that before a computer hooked to the internet. We had non-internet computers in the very early 90s. Floppy discs. I remember playing really old games on it.

In jr high school, we had a technology class. It just taught you how to start a computer, use a keyboard, and then turn off a computer. LOL

I must be too young! I don't remember those at all. I do remember playing games from floppy discs. Good times. We were so happy with what we had. Imagine having that today though.

Yeah, those are pretty old school!

I tried .tk for a blog, just to try it out. It was only for a bit but it worked well.
