The idea to make the VB.com Internet Hall of Fame was inspired by two Lady´s: - Eleanor Lambert, the New York fashion publicist that in 1940 created the Fashion Hall of Fame with the idea to promote style. The list is today edited by Vanity Fair, VF.com - Aimee de Heeren, Brazil´s most glamorous woman, a member of the Fashion Hall of Fame and an International Fashion Icon. Both undertood that creating class and style was not always a question of rational considerations .... Like the people from Hewlett Packard / HP.com, Texas Instruments / TI.com and General Electric / GE.com that registered their respective Domain Names for pratically nothing, at a time nobody knew about the Internet and that made their companies become of the World´s strongest Brands, 100% Internet Age compatible. - others like Deutsche Bank / DB.com, H&M / HM.com or Calvin Klein / CK.com paid "peanuts" and bought the missed domains during the early years of the Internet. - others like Liverpool Victoria / LV.com or LG Group / LG.com paid serious Money at a later time still managing to make their Logos "Internet Age compatible" ... all these companies they are now in the Internet Hall of Fame. - and others like Louis Vuitton / no LV.com or Deutsche Bahn / no DB.com were very slow ... too slow and inefficient to understand the Coming of the Internet, ... they missed the initial Domain Registration .... at a time nobody knew ... they missed to once exisiting Opportunity to buy the Domain .... at a time Internet was in everybodies mind ... and they continue spending massive amounts of Money to advertise a Monogram, which they do not own .com They are becoming more and more "Internet Age Incompatible" ... these companies are in the Internet Hall of Shame The super short .com Domains have enormous Prestige, they have been registered one by one .... at a time almost nobody knew about the Internet. In most cases they were very hard to get .... and the companies in the Hall of Fame deserve to be there. In 2009 were added: AT&T Yellowpages YP.com, LG Group LG.com, Lufthansa LH.com and Japan Tobacco / JT.com In 2010 were added: Reckitt Benckiser RB.com If you have any additional info or know any secrets please come to our blog.vb.com or send me an email ( b "@" vb.com) Thank you ...
