ICANN has been taking in applications for the new gTLDs to be rolled out as an infinite money maker for years to come. For that matter, ICANN wants all sorts of different, personal information about the principals of the entities that apply for a gTLD. The New gTLD Applicant Guidebook lists a dozen different types

Back in 2009 I met a young man named Alan Schaaf. Alan had created a site called Imgur that was catching fire. It was becoming THE photo hosting site for social aggregation sites like Reddit and Digg. Two years and 6 MILLION visits per day later, Imgur has become one of the biggest sites on
Twitter will begin to censor tweets – "when deemed necessary". It seems that some third world governments do not like the popularity that Twitter has gained with millions of suppressed masses and Twitter will comply with government requests to delete or block particular posts. "Until now, the only way we could take account of those...
It was back in November of '11 when the David Walsh deal went down. While at another registrar, Walsh's domain was stolen, and the story exploded on the social-o-sphere like Justin Bieber had gone missing. Anyway, long story short, in … Continue reading →
Last week I asked all of you to help me pick a logo for a new brand we are launching – TutorialsForGeeks.com. The feedback was phenomenal with 39 comments and lots of great input and ideas. So I've taken the feedback that I received, found what seemed to be the most popular recommendations, and went
Last night I was researching Spanish keywords in order to register .CO domains and it was getting late. It's tax season and crunching numbers is not fun, that's why I let my CPA do the hard work. But then something extraordinary happened! All of a sudden, a picture of the .CO logo stamped on a

Casa.com is next online store from Amazon.com's Quidsi unit. Mi casa su casa… Earlier this month I scooped that Quidsi, the company behind Diapers.com, Soap.com, Wag.com, and YoYo.com, was working on a new store called Casa.com. Quidsi has now published a "coming soon" page to Casa.com and launched a Facebook page. The site will offer...
Trademark office sends office action to PING Golf brand owner. On Wednesday I posted a list of 115 trademark applications that could be related to new top level domains, along with their current status. The USPTO has a policy of not granting trademarks on top level domains, and the number of "speculative" trademark applications has...
I believe it's more difficult to sell a domain name with any type of development as compared to a parked domain name. Many people who are unfamiliar with the Whois database will type in a domain name to see if someone is using it. If they see a developed website (even a mini site), it's

Opportunity to dine with DOMAINfest speakers quickly disappearing. Want some quality time with Brook Schaaf, John Morris, Lisa Box, Jay Weintraub, or Paul Nicks during DOMAINfest next week?

Back in November 2011 I shared a very interesting story about turning an $800 offer into a $20,000 domain name sale. The domain name in the story was BattleForEverything.com. At the time when I was helping Ryan out, I had fully thought that NBC was the interested party in the domain name, because they registered
Verisign plans to apply to ICANN for about 12 new generic top-level domains, according to the executive in charge of registry services. "We intend to do about 12. Most of those will be transliterations of .com," senior vice president Pat Kane said on the company's fourth-quarter earnings call yesterday. This does not mark a significant

Manwin Licensing, the company currently suing ICANN and ICM Registry claiming .xxx breaks US competition law, has filed its first cybersquatting complaint using the UDRP. It's over a .com domain, pornhubarchive.com (don't go there, not only is it NSFW but it also looks like it panders to some very dubious tastes), which Manwin thinks infringes
