November 22
The City of Chesapeake, Virginia, "The City that Cares", has been trying for 10 years to get the domain name chesapeake.com, but couldn't because someone else had beat them to it. The city's Public Communications Coordinator didn't think the city would ever get it, but it kept trying while continuing to use cityofchesapeake.net. Finally, the company which owned chesapeake.com got tired of the pestering from the city of Chesapeake and gave it to them for free. And once ownership was transferred, the city council sold the domain to natural gas producer Chesapeake Energy Corp. for $120,000.
