pizza.com sold for $2.6m
A US man has sold the domain name pizza.com for $2.6m (£1.3m) - after maintaining the site for just $20 a year since 1994. Mr Clark registered the domain name in 1994, when awareness of the world wide web was just gaining momentum. In January, Mr Clark decided to sell it after hearing that another domain - Vodka.com - was sold for $3m in 2006. The online auction was launched on 27 March. The first bid was $100, jumping to $2.6m a week later.
