David Singer
Today we want to talk about David Singer, the man who dared not to sell the domain we thrived to own: www.buttonsmashers.com. We made our own investigations and found out that he has got the domain under his name for the last seven years. Seven years and all you get when you browse it is a “Page Not Found”.
We wrote him an e-mail:
Dear David,
I am interested in the domain “www.buttonsmashers.com” listed under your name. Are you selling it? If so, which is the price you’re asking for. Thanks,
Elioncho
And all that we got back was a miserable:
Thanks for the inquiry, but the domain is not for sale.
David
So we wrote him back:
Dear David,
I know you’ve been unconvinced, and I’m prepared to compensate you. How much will it be 1 million US dollars? Very well, make it 2 million US dollars.
Thanks,
Elioncho
Apparently there are a handful of things that might be going on in his life:
1) He has been working secretely on his website for 7 years, thinking about releasing it very soon (HIGHLY unlikely).
2) He doesnt know that HTML exists, hence he’s been developing his own hypertext language (for example SHTML) for the past 7 years, together with contacting Microsoft and the Mozilla people so that their browsers can support it.
3) Hes trying to learn HTML but keeps falling asleep on his book every hour -> this seems to have been happening since 2001.
Kind Regards,
TioGus and Elioncho
