DNW Podcast #452: X.com, domain names and toys

A fun discussion with an early domain buyer.

Test: x.com, domain names, and toys with Jeremy Padawer

Have you ever passed up acquiring a domain only to kick yourself later? This stretch’s guest can probably one-up you.

Jeremy Padawer had the opportunity to buy x.com for $10,000, only to have Elon Musk beat him to it. On today’s show, Jeremy tells the story and a number of other great stories (counting ones with no regrets!) from the early days of domains and websites…such as buying Jeremy.com.

These days, you’re more likely to find Jeremy at a toy store than at a domain conference. He has helped bring lots of popular toys to market in his career.

It’s a fun conversation!
