Pick of the Litter

I'm so proud...

Now that I'm seriously considering self-publishing my book about the career of Dr. J. Allen Hynek as an eBook, I have to start thinking about building a solid online platform. Don't ask me what that means, exactly, because I don't exactly know, but I know it's important.

So why am I proud? Because I just gave birth to a litter of online domains that will provide me with that platform I need so badly.

My new babies are:

jallenhynek.com
jallenhynek.org
jallenhynek.net

Adorable, aren't they? I don't know what kind of domains they'll grow up to be, but for now I'm content to just watch them sleeping in their cradle.

Like many dumb guys, I was under the impression that if you wanted to buy a web domain, you had to do business with Danica Patrick. This is not true, however. There are any number of hot Indy car drivers who will sell you a web domain if you can pony up the cash.

I tried to get my mitts on a few other choice domains, but they were taken. Any domain with "Close Encounters" or "CE-anything-K" in the name has long since been snatched up. I could have gotten j-allen-hynek.com but that seemed way too dash-y.

So, I'm sticking with these three, and over time, when it becomes clear which of them is the Alpha domain, I'll thin the herd and go with my winner. Can't wait!
