All Things Must Come To An End – It Is A Sad Day For My Domain Portfolio – This Must Be The Longest Blog Post Title Ever – Seriously It Is

CheapAzz.net logo Today I just received official notice that my very first domain, CheapAzz.net is scheduled for deactivation in two days. I registered the domain on August 23rd, 2004 after two years on a GeoCities website. Remember them? Yahoo announced that it will close GeoCities on October 26, 2009 – just a coincidences I think. It probably has nothing to do with the gloomy doom of CheapAzz.net. Anyway, I digress…

CheapAzz.net was my first domain hosted on a shared server (nine of them in five years according to the Whois record). It was the second phase of the Extreme Ezine and it’s where I began branding myself as ‘CheapAzz‘. Not my proudest moment but no regrets either. It was a learning experience. It’s also where I built my first forum and where I started several safelists. More importantly it’s where I began an online relationship with many friends that I still know today.

CheapAzz.net was never a huge success but it did make it to a PageRank 05/10 on Google and was responsible for proving to me what I desperately wanted to believe – you could make money online. From there I branched off into so many directions I’m not sure where I’ve been or where I’m at. I’m not even sure I’m writing this post. I wonder if I sourced this post out?

Any way, it’s been a blast CheapAzz.net and I bid you a fond farewell. I hope you find success on a dedicated server sitting in front of powerful fan cooling your hot azz off someday.

I haven’t gotten rich from the internet yet but it’s been a lot of fun. And how many can make this statement? “I haven’t had to add a cent to my PayPal account in over three years and it easily pays all of my bills“! Thank you for getting me started CheapAzz.net

Great. I’ve learned something new from you. I’ve been using Gmail for a couple of years I think but it is only now I’ve noticed the used of filters. Thanks for the link love. Will surely share it to my followers

Hi Dennis, No problem. Just getting in a little Camtasia practice.

Sheryl Loch Said in February 11th, 2009 @7:45 pm

Hey Brian,
I am not sure how people get by without setting filters & folders. I do have everything that gets a label also goes in a folder & skips the “IN” box. That way it only takes me 2 seconds if I am looking to see if mail from a certain project has come in. I would be in a real mess with just plain ol’ email.

I see you are going all Camtasia High Tech! That’s great – now when I try it I will know who to ask for help!

Hi Sheryl, I love Gmail. I hope it sticks around for a long time without ‘improvement’. Remember ‘New Coke’ LOL

I use an old version of Camtasia but it was free. Let me know if you need a copy. I want to learn more like zooming in and editing the video before I use it. Adding captions would be great. I need a teenager to show my these things

Hi Beok, Glad you liked it. I may do another one soon.

Hey Brian, if by chance you have free time and you still have that old free Camtasia app, I would definitely want a copy, if you don’t mind of course. You know my email address.

I have begun being interested in making video posts. I guess, I’m beginning to enter the phase where writing pure text posts is becoming less exciting and besides I plan to spruce up my blog content a bit with videos every now and then.
