Over at my other blog, I talk about the importance of owning a domain even if you don’t plan on having a website.

Here’s a quote from the post:

The most important use you can make with your own domain is having access to an infinity of email addresses. You probably already have at least one @gmail.com, @yahoo.com, @hotmail.com, @whatever-free-email-service.com address, probably 2 or more, everyone does. However, none of these gives you as much freedom as having your own domain does.
