Matt Mullenweg actually registered the domain for $500 per year for the first 2 years :)

.tt domains are quite expensive in general so I think he got a pretty good deal for ma.tt

Interesting conincidence, the .blog TLD used by diff.blog, is owned by Automattic, the company started by Matt Mullenweg :)

Ahh. Another coincidence. It's 18 years today since the first wordpres release was made by Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little.
