I only recognize 10 to 15 of them that are big companies.

I figure most of them are successful investments, though.

Hmm, I wonder how much their domains are worth now-a-days as well?

Well i remember my dad stumbled across this domain once called something like telaretium. Turns out it is the closest possible translation of internet from latin, so he got offered $800 for it

What? How can internet be translated into latin?

I'm surprised by those names, though. imagined more obvious choices for investment purposes.

I'm pretty sure that tella is something like 'inter' and 'retium' is web. So yeah, it is the closest you can get.
