A former technology reporter for the Journal's online edition, David stumbled onto the new boom in Internet domain names in 2005 when a colleague shared an intriguing press release about a $1 million domain sale. David left WSJ.com in September 2006 to write his book on domain-name investors. (While working on the book, he authored a domain blog.) He came back to the company eight months later after cranking out his manuscript and briefly trying freelancing. David is also the author of an as-yet unpublished young-adult novel, The Cheater, about a high-school basketball phenom.
David lives on Chicago's North side with his wife and two daughters. When he's not writing, reading and hanging out with his family, David likes watching college basketball, drinking beer (he particularly likes pilsners) and dining out.
