domain featured in O'Reilly book, available now

Chapter 10 of the O'Reilly "Learning Python" book features the development
of a CGI application for a fictional company, Joe's Toothpaste, Inc, at
the fictional website "toftoot.com". That domain is not, in reality,
currently registered to anyone. Grab it while it's hot. :-)

Alan

interested to see if anybody actually does :-)

I understand the domain "xxoeitll.com" is not yet claimed, either.

And as an added advantage, it has a higher likelihood of meaning
something rude in Aztec, as well. ;-)

Imagine my surprise some years ago when I found out that the quite
cryptic 'tzot' I traditionally used as a username (chris was oh so
already-taken in unix systems), was a quite common mayan word (a dialect
of Mayan, a small barracuda, 'arm', 'labyrinth', 'lost one' are its
meanings so far as per google...)

I don't know if it means python too, what with all those dragon and
snake gods, but I wouldn't be surprised :)
