The ICANN Suites


So just where is ICANN headquarterd, where exactly is the building where decisions are made that affect the entire Internet. It's in Los Angeles, is it downtown?


No, this is full of lawyers

Well, since it used to be IANA, which was part of the Information Sciences Institute, maybe USC/ISI is at USC?


No, this is full of scientists and other smart people

The address is 4676 Admiralty way, Marina del Rey. Now, Los Angeles sits on a bay, from Malibu at the north all the way down to Palos Verdes in the south it's a giant gaping hole on the pacific ocean. "The Marina" or Marina del Rey, is the part of LA where you hang out if you have a boat. A pretty big boat.

So, lets's just say the marina isn't known at the hotbed of commerce and technology, although "hot bed" is usually what comes to mindl what do you always find near big boats?

ICANN didn't put Marina del Rey on the map, accoding to Wikipedia, turtle racing did.

"Girls have to put the turtles into the ring and they're not allowed to bend their knees.
If they do bend their knees, they have to try it again. Underwear is frequently optional."
