A preface to fahd.org and experience matters!
February 12th, 2006
Like an adamant little kid hell-bent on getting that new toy in the store display, for some reason, I just had to have the domain name fahd.com (Fahd is my first name). The US $8,000 price tag quoted by the owner of fahd.com at the time, put a quick stop to that desire. The .net alternative was similarly priced. The next preferred option being fahd.org is what I finally gave in to and acquired at an outrageously priced bargain. Outrageous, because I had no plans for the domain at the time (it is two years later that I am setting up this blog). And bargain, because I got it for a lot cheaper than it should have been. There you have it; that’s how fahd.org came about!
Why the tagline experience matters? I’ve learnt more from experience than all other learning avenues combined. Pure experience is sometimes a harsh method of learning, but experience is definitely the best teacher I have come across.
