I guess you could say I’ve been one all my life, a start-up junkie, and just didn’t know it. I preferred to assume I had something on the order of mild ADHD or simply a childlike, short attention span. Nevertheless I have had a very successful business career. Now, in my late 60’s and early 70’s I have become an equally successful Professional artist.
Art has provided me with an unlimited and convenient amount of start-up projects. As an abstract Expressionist painter, I find myself always eager to start a new project, choose my color pallet and dive right in; seldom knowing where my dreams will take me. To create is the object of my work and to believe that Art Brings Imagination to Life is my motto.
In the process of pursuing my art career I have not given up my business interests now taking on a new roll: i-Entrepreneur. I think the term e-commerce is more correctly stated with an (i), for internet, in other words i-commerce and I, as in i-Entrepreneurship.
Right now I have about 40 (TLDs) Top Level Domain names. Each I believe with a huge potential for a start-up business. You’ve heard the saying “it’s all in a name”? Well that is true, but then again there is the one that goes…a rose by any name…etc. I believe that a name is vital to a start-up, particularly if you don’t have a huge amount of money or time to create a brand name from scratch, like Google or AT &T.
There is obviously no substitute for WOM…word of mouth…your name or brand can rocket to fame based on a notable news release, unfortunately bad press seems to travel faster. “Viral” is the common term today…oddly taken from the word virus. An explanation of viral marketing and its applications is crucial in understanding and the ultimate success of a start-up internet business.
If you are already an expert in using social media and understand the principles of Viral marketing…skip to the section on SEO…search engine optimization, which is critical to the success of any internet business.

- What will be the new internet?
- There is only so much room in the current Internet system, known as IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) We will soon deplete the available number of addresses.
On the horizon is a new system Internet Protocol, IPv6 with potentially billions of billions more address space and the chance to improve our security systems.
It will be necessary for staff training, better management tools, updated routers and operating systems as well as applications must now be IPv6 ready.
More than two-thirds of the world's IP addresses were bought by American companies.
As companies and people in Asia get more devices they are going to run out of IP addresses.
One of the biggest pressures on IPv4 is the 'always on' internet connection. At the moment, when you dial your ISP they assign you a temporary IP address, which is taken away the moment you log off and given to someone else.
But in the new era of 3G wireless computing, each of us needs a static, or permanent IP address. That is why the world needs an upgrade from 32 bit IPv4 addresses to 128 bit IPv6 within a matter of a few years.
This is intended to provide four billion times four billion times four billion as many as currently exist.
As a means of mitigation of the immediate problem, the IETF altered the structure of an IP address. Rather than having a fixed-length network identifier of 8, 16, or 24 bits, the network part of the address could be any length at all, and a network identifier was now the couplet of an IP address field containing a network part and the bit length of the network part. The boundary between the network and host part could change across the network, so rather than having "networks" and "subnetworks" as in the class-based address architecture, there was the concept of a variable length network mask. This was termed the "classless" address architecture (or "CIDR"), and the step was considered to be a short-term expediency to buy some additional time before address exhaustion. The longer-term plan was to develop a new IP architecture that could encompass a much larger connectivity domain than was possible with IPv4.
We now have IPv6 as the longer-term outcome. But what has happened to the short-term expediency of the classless address architecture in IPv4? It appears to have worked very well indeed so far, and now the question is: how long can this supposedly short-term solution last?
