Friday Funnies: ccTLDs in real life

Posted by Acro in Domains, Friday Funnies on May 15th, 2009

Traveling domainers carry with them the “domain virus” and often attempt to apply it to real life events.

Rick Schwartz’s recent trip to Greece and neighboring Turkey inspired the following Friday Funny :D

To boldly go where no domainer has gone before!

I admit it, I am a Star Trek fan. I discovered the series in the late 70’s, long after Space 1999 and right after the success of Star Wars. I’d rush home from school and I’d turn on the TV to watch – in glorious black and white – the adventures of Starship Enterprise and its brave crew.

What set Star Trek apart from the other sci-fi shows, was the depth of its characters. Each and every member of the Enterprise’s multi-cultural crew, which included men and women, humans and aliens, black, white and Asian – maintained their own important role in every episode.

There would be no complete show without captain Kirk’s boldness and tongue-in-cheek humor, Spock’s ultra-logical genius, the seriousness of Dr. Leonard “Bones” or the agonizing dedication of Uhura, Sulu and Scotty. And at a time that the Cold War was at its peak between the US and USSR, Chekov served as a hint to the TV viewers that the Russians might not be evil after all.

Without further ado, “Friday Funnies” brings you Star Trek – the Domainers’ version. Click on the image to view at full size.

Live long, and register.

Friday Funnies: Putting fun back into domains

Posted by Acro in Business, Domains, Friday Funnies, Gadgets on April 24th, 2009

Things get too serious sometimes. In order to instill some fun into the serious business of domains, I’m starting the “Friday Funnies” section.

Each Friday, a cartoonized photo will attempt to deliver some humor without – hopefully – hurting the feelings of those it depicts. :D

Today’s “Friday Funny” is about social media “wars” and two well-known personalities, Frank Schilling and Rick Schwartz.
