Most entrepreneurs today don’t remember the Dot-Com bubble of 1995 or the Dot-Com crash that followed in 2000. As a reminder, the Dot Com bubble was a five-year period from August 1995 (the Netscape IPO ) when there was a massive wave of experiments on the then-new internet, in commerce, entertainment, nascent social media, and search.

I purchased my first home back in 1995 and it was obvious that most on our street were also first-time buyers. We wanted our name to reflect our mission, and we also wanted it to resonate with our young student audience.
