Independent editorial projects
Rich looking for Rich. Mort looking for Mort.
I'm Rich Mort. I chose mort.rich for my name, rather than my net worth. It is an unusual little address, and I wanted to know who else was out there.
RichfindingRich
I wrote to the people behind .rich about a series on the people and businesses using their domains. The iRegistry team responded positively. We're still exploring the idea.
I also contacted the Sunday Times Rich List team. Their reply came within half an hour. That encouraged me to keep looking at what the word 'rich' means to different people, well beyond a figure on a balance sheet.
The Mort Report
My full name is Richard John Mort. Somewhere there may be another one. I am researching the namesakes, businesses, places and historical connections behind those four letters, especially the stories a directory entry cannot tell.
Both projects are in development. I will publish the findings as they are checked and the conversations take shape. There is no paid placement in the editorial series.
A name worth following
If you are a Rich, a Mort, a Richard John Mort or someone with a .rich domain and a story to tell, send me a note. Tell me how you came by the name and what I should look at first.
