How Did Digg Founder Kevin Rose Forget to Register his Own Company’s Domain Names?

Kevin Rose founded Digg.com and recently launched Pownce.com, but his company - Megatechtronium - doesn’t appear to have reserved their own domains! Megatechtronium.com just has “Megatechtronium?” on it and (much more interesting) Megatechtronium.net is up for sale to the highest bidder.

    megatechtronium.com is owned by them. advertising inquiries for pownce are to be sent to support@megatechtronium.com. (which tells me that yes, they do own it)

    Hah, well, that makes sense … I guess :) It’s still strange to me that that one banner is all they’d have up, and that they wouldn’t buy the other associated URLs (.net especially, or .org or whatever). Within a day, I noticed, all of the Pownce-associated ones (even .us and .info) were taken.

    I bought the .org version, and had it forward to my adult version of digg that I made. Pornoflow.com hahaha.

    yea. I work in the adult industry, but im an oober techie, so I had to do it. But I would totally sell it to kevin rose, or whoever wanted to buy it. And p.s. I have a fairly good hunch that you are the owner of the .net. Am I right?
