Had a pretty bad day in the "offline" world but fortunately, I've developed a nice way of getting bad days out of my "system" as time passed. Sometimes I go for a nice walk, sometimes I choose another activity that makes me happy.
The absolute worst thing you can do (in my opinion) is "confront"
NetMundial closes its gates today, with a party at the Maracanã, where the famous Brazilian soccer player, Edson Arantes do Nascimento will be signing autographs.

I love just about everything associated with working for myself as a domain investor. There are some days that I wish I had a business partner though. Every once in a while, an offer is made on a domain name that I wish I could get another opinion about before making a decision. Yesterday's article about reasonable offers will give you an understan...
GoDaddy CEO Blake Irving is doing a Reddit AMA. GoDaddy CEO Blake Irving is doing an Ask Me Anything (AMA) on Reddit right now.

I first used Unix in the late 80′s, that was my first interaction with a programmable system that did not need punch cards. Then MINIX came along, on the PC, something that seemed fun at the time as it gave the illusion of shrinking a computer monolith down to desktop size. Linux was released almost […]

Microsoft has abandonded its application for the .live new gTLD, leaving the erstwhile dot-brand in the hands of either Donuts or Google.
