DanielScocco.com is Finally Live

Posted: 21 May 2015 11:00 AM PDT

The domain DanielScocco.com has a curious story behind it. I bought it back in 2005, as I wanted to reserve the domain that matched my name. I wasn’t planning to use it for anything initially, and for some reason I forgot to renew it a couple of years later.

Around 2009 I decided I should probably build a site on that domain, so I went to register it again, only to find out that someone else had already registered it! Given that mine is a pretty unique name, I figured that someone who knew me from this blog decided to register my name with the hope that I would offer to buy it for a higher price.

I certainly didn’t want to spend money to get the domain name back, so I just kept monitoring it over the years. The buyer renewed it for 4 years in a row, but then he probably figured I wouldn’t be making an offer anytime soon, so he let the domain expire, and last year I bought it again.

This year I decided to launch a personal site/blog there. I want to use it as a showcase for myself and my projects. I am also writing occasional posts there, when I have something interesting to say. For instance, I wrote about the experience of winning a car at Ford’s hackathon earlier this year, and about how you can learn to deal with rejection in a position way.

Ah, if you don’t have YourName.com registered yet, make sure to do so before someone gets it!
