When One Door Closes, Another Opens: New Interview Details How Ron Jackson Found Domains Behind Door #3

For more than 20 years now, InterNetX has consistently developed innovative solutions for domains, hosting and encryption. A few years ago they added a Snapshot section to their website that serves as a hub for a remarkably rich collection of interviews, podcasts, e-papers and blog posts that provide unique, in-depth insight that anyone in the domain or digital infrastructure industries can benefit from. Simone Catania, InterNetX's Global Content & Communications Manager, oversees the production of the wide ranging elements that have gone into building one of the most valuable informational resources we have now. 

Having already been a fan of Simone's work, I was honored to sit down for an interview with him discussing how and why I got involved in the domain business to begin with (a journey that started back in 2002, less than a year before DNJournal was launched on New Year's Day 2003). That interview (available in both English and German languages) was published today as the latest installment in Snapshot's popular "All About Domains" series. 

As an industry that is still relatively new, most in the domain business came into it from somewhere else - often from completely unrelated fields. In my case, this was the third industry I had found a home in.

I spent the first 20 years of my work life as a radio and TV reporter, then went to work for myself, following a passion for music to open a series of record stores. Those  flourished until the Internet came along and wiped them all out. Simone's interview begins there and goes on to illustrate the truth in the old saying, "when one door closes, another one opens." In my case, door number 3 turned out to be the best one I ever walked through. You can read all about it by clicking the graphic below.
