DotComGuy is a human incarnation of the worst the Net has to offer. By Janelle Brown 4:37 p.m. PDT July 12 DotComGuy is sitting on his couch, watching television. I can hear traffic going by his house, a horn honking. The phone rings, and he jumps up to answer it, pacing back and forth like a trapped man. "Oh yeah. Definitely. Awesome!" he exclaims into the receiver, in elevated tones designed to be picked up by a microphone and beamed to the ears of millions of invisible listeners. He hangs up the phone, sits down, stares blankly at the television. A few minutes later, two of DotComGuy's friends show up with a bag of food although the picture is grainy and dim on my computer monitor, I think I can make out french fries. The three sit in silence. They are watching "Seinfeld" reruns.

That, and he was worried he wouldn't get laid with a name like DotComGuy. "Initially, having DotCom in my name heightened my status," said Guy, who legally changed his name from Mitch Maddox to DotComGuy before entering virtual seclusion last Jan. 1. "But now it's suddenly like I'm just some loser who is little more than a pathetic symbol of Internet hype." Guy denied the loser label might also refer to being a 27-year-old single male who hasn't left his house for a year.
