Welcome to Labyrinth Online
Introduction
Labyrinth - An intricate configuration of interconnecting passages through which it is difficult to find one's way; a maze-like structure. The term can also be used as a metaphor for the highly intricate and convoluted network known as the internet.
In Greek Mythology, the Labyrinth was the maze in which the Minotaur was confined. Since then, the name has been attributed to numerous organisations, societies, companies, games, books, movies and a host of other things.
The domain name, Labyrinth.com, has been in continuous use since January 1991, which is exceptionally rare. Internet historians have estimated that at the beginning of 1991, fewer than 5000 dot coms existed. Bare in mind that 20 years ago, the user-friendly World Wide Web, as we know it today, was still in a beta phase of sorts. The general public didn't know what the internet was, let alone how to register a domain name. In fact, billions of dollars worth of names, like Media.com, were yet to materialise.
Dictionary dot coms are in limited supply these days, which means they're not so easy to acquire. In addition, they're brandable and usually come with a certain degree of inherent traffic. This tends to make them pretty sought after amongst the usual online startup crowd and business multitude alike.
Anyway, this web space will eventually become some kind of code and design project, but until then, this place-setter will have to suffice. :)
Notes
If you're using Windows, these pages are best viewed through a Safari Browser with the Quartz Engine running. On a Mac, it shouldn't matter. Under all circumstances, high pixel density (ppi) is preferable. Text-based webpages simply don't look right on any other setup.
This web space has been thrown together from scatch pretty quickly. Over time, I'll endeavor to improve things.
