REDdimension is the primary internet domain and [1] of Jon Reddick and his family.
Origin
Jon first experienced the pain of changing an email address (including notifying all friends & family, changing all subscriptions and updating all online services) in the fall of 1998 when changing from his first ever address with Tallahassee Freenet to his new "permanent" ISP, Vistech.
The difficulty and frustration of that process, combined with early forays into freelance website design and the need for a web host for those projects, led him to the conclusion that it was time to choose a truly permanent online identity and residence for him and his family which could be kept for a lifetime.
On September 16, 1998, reddimension.com was first registered with Network Solutions, LLC (then the only licensed registrar for top-level internet domain names) for two years for $70.
During those first two years, domain name registration become decentralized and Network Solutions's monopoly on the market had been dissolved. Jon transferred reddimension.com to Dotster.com, where it is still maintained to this day for $14.95 per year.
