So I finally bought eatnumber1.com... i've been looking at it since I was like 14.
Many people have asked me "why eatnumber1... what does it mean". The answer is *drum roll* nothing! Eatnumber1 is a name I came up with when I was signing up for AOL when I was like 8 years old, and couldn't think of anything else that wasn't taken. The really good thing about it, and the biggest reason I keep using it is because nobody... absolutely nobody... uses it but me, so I can always know that if I go to a site, I can sign up on the site using eatnumber1.
So now that I have eatnumber1.com, I've setup a few things... Google's management of a few of the subdomains (mail.eatnumber1.com, calendar.eatnumber1.com, blog.eatnumber1.com, etc...), and I pointed a few other subdomains at my various computers. My only complaints are that Google's domain services don't have things like Gmail labs, or any of the latest Gmail features in fact. To get around this, I forwarded all the mail to russ@eatnumber1.com (my new primary email address) to eatnumber1@gmail.com (my old primary), registered russ@eatnumber1.com with gmail, and set it as my primary. So now, I login to eatnumber1@gmail.com, but can treat it as if it was russ@eatnumber1.com. My other complaint is with dns hosting. I wanted to get a host with dynamic dns support so I could give my systems with dynamic ips (laptop) a subdomain, but Godaddy (my registrar) doesn't support it. The only dns host I could find that would host a tier 1 domain that supported dynamic dns for free was dnsexit, and they required that you put a link to them on your website... since i'm not pointing eatnumber1.com at anything, there is no website to put a link to. Also, I later found out that they don't support SRV records which I need to play with google's custom domain google chat services. So now, i'm just using Godaddy for dns (I actually like their custom DNS interface), and the only complaint I have with them is that they don't support dynamic DNS.
