£20 web domain name to go for £1million
26/06/2008

A businessman who bought the domain name http://www.£.com for £20 nine years ago is hoping to auction it for more than £1million today.
Richard Haigh's internet address is one of only two domain names in the world with a single symbol - the other is the euro - and it is expected to be snapped up by a bank at the Amsterdam sale.
Richard, 32, from Nottingham, said: "I bought it before the internet really took off and while prices for domain names were low.
"Whatever happens at the auction, its sale will change my life for ever."
