Symbolics.com, the first .com domain ever registered, turned 36 years old today.
Registered on March 15, 1985, Symbolics.com has become the symbol of a new technological era in communications, following the invention of the internet in 1974. Two years before Symbolics.com was registered, the adoption of the TCP/IP protocol enabled the creation of the modern internet.
That and other tidbits of information can be found in an ebook of internet history available to download at Symbolics.com – the title is “Internet History in the Making.”
Aron Meystedt, owner, registrant, and biggest fan of Symbolics.com, also announced that a new museum section is available on the web site.
