TechKat... You stole my name! D:

[tk]

I have an interesting story to tell. I'm putting this in the Water Cooler, considering this has no real importance. Last year, I adopted the name "TechKat" as the username I use on every website. My real name is Katlyn, and people sometimes call me Kat. Aeound last year (as I said) I started getting really into computers, and how they work and such. It was so fun and interesting to learn about how a computer functions (I'm still learning, actually)

I discovered you guys when I went to google, typed in "TechKat" and pushed "I'm feeling Lucky"

Today, I tried joining blogger.com under your guys' name (to me, it's MINE ) and you guys had it taken, so I thought I'd drop a message with my story. I never expected someone else taking my name. It's so unique! You guys have class!

See ya later,

Kat.

Hi Katlyn,

Sorry to have claimed "your" name, but I've been using that as my business name for about six years now.

My name is Kathleen and lots of people call me Kat too. That's really where the name Techkat came from for me. Not because I love cats (which I do but that really wasn't a consideration in the name).

Actually, I had to wait for years for the domain techkat.com to become available. In the meantime I had to make do with techkat.net, but when the .com name became available I snapped it up in a hurry.

There is one other person or company who uses the name techkat, but they are in an Eastern European country as far as I can tell.

Anyway, welcome to the forum!
