I first registered the domain name posi.net back in 1995 during the great domain name gold rush. OK, so I was a little late to the party and all the good names were taken, but I was pretty happy to get a short domain name. I also kept the e-mail address kbyanc@posi.net until last year, when the volume of spam overwhelmed the little 233Mhz Soekris box I've been using as my firewall, mail, web, and home file server.
Earlier this year, I stopped renewing my Dynamic DNS service, effectively taking posi.net offline. And this month, after 16 years, I decided not to renew my domain registration.
I never really did much with the posi.net domain -- I mostly just used it to host my open source code repositories and a few toy web sites. I've been slowly working on converting the toy web sites to run on Google App Engine and am thinking of uploading the open source repositories to github. I'm not sure where I'm going to host my resume, but I'm not in any hurry to figure that one out.
