Downtime

How It All Began

Growing up with the Internet, I had always wanted to have my own website. So, I purchased this domain as soon as I earned my first bit of money. A core memory from my childhood is when I visited this domain—back then, it was owned by another person with the same first and last name as me, and they were a known personality in India. You can still go to the Internet Archive and find a good old Web 2.0 website from sometime in the mid to late 2000s. At some point, they must have given up on this domain because I purchased it in late 2016. At that time, my goal was simply to park the domain with a landing page and spend as little as possible on hosting.
