The story behind your nick

What's the story behind your nick pakastin, which means freezer in Finnish?

That's a great question! 👍

I started with the web in 1999 and soon needed wanted a website for myself. Back then there were many companies/websites with just a simple Finnish word, like "muropaketti.com" (cerial box), "Dynamo", "Satama" (a dock) and so on...

One day I sat behind our kitchen table when my mom opened our freezer. Then I saw an icon with snowflakes and I literally thought it was kinda cool!

Then it hit me!

Nice 😎
Unfortunately can't see anything on that page though. Unwilling to use flash... Maybe post a screenshot?
