Subject: Historical info on how 'x.com' came to be registered
 

Does anyone have any historical information on how ‘x.com’ came to be registered even though single letters were reserved?

 

Is there a story or is it as simple as it was registered prior to the reservation?

 

Just wondering.

 

Thanks,

-Drew
