My Name is Steve Hall

So everyone wants their own domain name, right? So years a go, I check to see if stevehall.com is taken. Sadly, it is. It's not surprising though given Steve hall being such a common name. So Steve Hall, the publisher of Adrants, creator of AdGabber, a dude who's been online since AOL has fewer than one million members doesn't get his name as his domain name.

Who gets stevehall.com? A pianist named Steve Hall. I'm sure he's a nice guy...and I'm sure he's never going to give up stevehall.com. I wouldn't. So here I am with the silly url stevehallismyname.com. How idiotic. How wordy. How impossible to remember. But, hey, it's all there was left thanks to domain name sqautters who register every conceivable word combination for no apparent purpose but to frustrate those of us who would actually use the domains.

My name is Steve Hall. I'm an ad guy. Or, at least, I was before I got fired for wasting too much time on the job writing Adrants, now my full time obsession which, thankfully, pays all the bills. Somewhere along that path of goofing off at work, I co-founded the online marketing site MarketingVOX. I also publish the ad:tech weblog and founded AdGabber, a social networking site for the advertising industry.

So that's me Steve Hall. Hopefully I will have something interesting to say here. If not, this will be the first and last post on this site and waste of the $24 I sent GoDaddy for the right to use mynameisstevehall.com for two years. TIme will tell.
