30 Years Of .com

Thirty years ago, the .com Internet domain was born. In case you're not familiar, the companies and organizations that hand out Internet addresses use top-level domains like .com to organize the addresses. Addresses that end in .com can be registered by anyone, although the suffix stands for commercial.
The first .com domain was registered March 15,1985, to computer manufacturer Symbolics Inc. The site is now run by an investment group in Dallas to offer 'unique and interesting facts pertaining to business and internet history.'
