Technology Is Never As Important As The People Using It

What I love about handling systems is that everything is clear cut. Sorting out anomalies may be troublesome, sometimes even bordering on impossible; but given enough time and effort it will be sorted out. Regardless if you’re handling hardware, software, networks or a hybrid combination systems can be sorted out and made to play well with each other.

People on the other hand, are a totally different game. There’s no human being alive that can be categorized as predictable. Sometimes what seems like normal behaviour is really a front to a totally different motive.

Investing In Another Domain

After my successful sale of ServerBuzz.com I’m very inspired to buy more domains with aftermarket potential. I’m sure those who’ve tried to find good unregistered .com domains for your online projects would sooner or later conclude that all the good names are taken. Although I generally agree with this conclusion, there are times when you do get lucky and actually found an unregistered name with decent potential.

Sold ServerBuzz.com For 450 Euros

I didn’t expect to reveal this information less than 24 hours after my last post… but my PayPal cash register just rang… Kaching!

I managed to sell ServerBuzz.com for €450 through Sedo. Sedo charges €50 for securing a buyer for my domain, but I believe that getting €400 is more than a fair price to get from a domain that I was under-utilizing anyway.

ServerBuzz.com Sold!

Offloading One Of My Domains

Enthusiasm is hard to keep up. I find this very true when it comes to my online projects. I’m guilty of not giving more attention to projects other than HTNet (this blog). In fact, even HTNet has gone through long periods of neglect which resulted from offline issues like work and others.

I’m in the process of retiring one of my earlier undertakings. I’ve found a party that’s interested in taking over the domain. Right now, the process is in the advanced stage and essentially I’m just waiting for the money to roll in.

If you’re a regular reader of HTNet, I think you can guess which of my domains I’m offloading ;)

Happy Labour Day!

To all the workers out there, happy Labour Day! This is the day where the everyday workers’ contribution to society is recognized and celebrated.

However, I don’t want to be worker forever. Someday, I’ll be celebrating the other 364 days of the year as Entrepreneur Day, and my staff get their Labour Day only once a year :P

What about you?
