One more major change.

First I would like to apologize to all of you that have been subscribing to the RSS feeds or have linked to information on this page. I have been going through an evolution and believe that I have finally found the destination.

Once, again I am changing the site address to http://tekpr0n.com finding that it would be nice to have a top level domain. It will offer a bit more flexibility moving forward as well as making it easier to remember and get to.

TekPr0n huh?

Well, I have to admit that I spent several hours looking for a domain that was available, I had a few in mind and did everything I could think of to get exactly what I wanted in a name, although, I think there are a lot of others out there that know how to use dictionary.com and thesaurus.com to find the same alternates  was looking for.

TekPr0n, the definition…

Tek is a revision to Tech, or technology, duh. I chose this because that is my interest and my goal as far as content on this site. I live, breathe, and will end up most likely dying by technology, so rightfully, it has a stake in the name of the site.

Pr0n is a revision to the word Porn. Obviously this is not going to be a pornographic site, although I hear they bring in the bucks. Rather I have included pr0n in the title due to the new definition is has evolved to, over time.

From Dictionary.com: // [Usenet, IRC] Pornography. Originally this referred only to Internet porn but since then it has expanded to refer to just about anything. The term comes from the warez kiddies tendency to replace letters with numbers. At some point on IRC someone mistyped, swapped the middle two letters, and the name stuck, then propagated over into mainstream hacker usage. Compare filk,grilf, hing and newsfroup.

The way I see pr0n and the way it has come to be accepted, is that is is something good, or something you lust for. Some incessantly look at porn on the internet, well, I incessantly look at gadgets, technology, games, and the like, to the point where I consider it my “type” of porn, or Pr0n.

Anyhow, enough of the explaining.

Same place, same content, actually more now that I have the domain search done, and the same good ol’ techie geek. Welcome to TekPr0n.com, I hope you enjoy.
