Terrible news, very sorry to hear. I remember he was quite the personality back in the day. Also, who can forget he was the creator of the 'Crackwhore' Q2 model. :)

That comment is perfect. I'm a developer that loves buying domain names that strike a chord. I'll get to that idea one day! I get approached a few times a year and the author touched on a lot of feeling a seller goes through when being appr

Kudos where kudos are due. He's doing right by his fans and the technology. That's why everyone is so impressed. He's brilliant and paving the way for artists to make money. He is the Trent Reznor of his field. Reznor on "what to do as a ne
