iPosit.com - Malouf Blogs

Welcome to iPosit.com.

I’m originally from Jackson, Miss.  Born & raised there for 30 years.  Mississippi is home, but I’m also of Lebanese descent.  Quite a combination, eh?  I started a web development shop there in March of 2000 called D2 Interactive.  We were an eBusiness services firm specializing in e-commerce, building web-based apps, database programming, web design, web/email hosting, content management solutions (like SpotEdit), search engine marketing and email marketing services.  Sold that company after 5 years in April 2005.  I was proud of how we’d grown D2 as a small, talented shop with 10-12 employees and two offices between Jackson, MS & Oxford, MS.  But, now that time seems like almost ages ago.

So, when I was 30, I sold my first company to join another opportunity with Ashley Furniture HomeStores here in the Carolinas.  Now 33 years young (or old, depending on your vantage point), I co-own 9 Ashley Furniture HomeStores in Charlotte, NC & Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson, SC.  And, I’m very happily married to the former Miss Kelli Nicole Evans.

I like Lost, The Office & good food.  The Chicago Cubs and Ole Miss Rebels are two teams that I root for.  And cool applications of technology still hold my interest.  

One of my hobbies is searching for cool available domain names.  I own BuzzEngine.com, BrowserBlog.com, SEOToday.com, ClickStatz.com, WebmasterLog.com, RFIDLog.com, HostingLog.com, MyBlogDirectory.com, MyWebsiteDirectory.com, SearchMS.com, PHP.ms, Seek.ms, Blogs.ms, Blues.ms, SEOToolKit.com & others.  Not sure what I’ll ever do with them other than dream up web-based business plans.

Another hobby is reading blogs.  I should probably post all of the blogs I read on this site somewhere.

I should also mention that I’ve been a huge Apple fan for the past year.  I bought the iPhone the first day it came out on Friday, June 29th, 2007, and I purchased a MacBook Pro on Black Friday 2007.  I gotta say that I’ve really enjoyed becoming an Apple/Mac/iPhone fanatic.  Recently switched from open source (Firefox/Thunderbird/OpenOffice) to Apple’s suite of software (MacMail/Safari/iWork).

I’d also like to give a shout out to CharlotteONE led by Dave Hickman (follow him at www.twitter.com/davehickman or on Facebook).  And, I’d like to mention my brother Jason who just recently accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.  I’m very proud of him.
