The First .com Turns 25 Today

It is amazing to me that the very first .com is 25 years old today. Symbolics.com, was registered on March 15, 1985, and was the first dot-com web page. Today, there are more than 80 million dot com domain names, and today, owning a domain name is as easy as getting an email address. Following Symbolics.com, big companies like Apple, IBM, Intel and AMD bought their domain names. Today, the internet is more a necessity than ever before, and it’s definitely here to stay. I wonder how much traffic Symbolics.com will be getting today...
