I've known Rick Schwartz for almost a decade now. When I first started he was one to look up to, been there, done that, and still going strong. One of my early lessons from Rick is one I will carry with me for a lifetime. I'd like to share it with you today, and if you find it valuable, I hope you pass it forward to others as well. R...
The Internet is the ONLY media platform expected to see a growth in ad revenues this year. Everyone knows newspapers have become basket cases but new data shows magazines are taking a fierce beating too. Declines in ad revenue in the first quarter of 2009 were mind boggling in every magazine category.
In my Friday video I announced Rick Latona as ChefPatrick.com's first Naughty Domainer Award winner. Naughty can be good or bad. In this case it was good.
Rick gets this award for his Courage and Honesty. Rick had the Courage to put on an all adult auction and had the Honesty to say was terrible.
Today I received word that there will be another a new entry into the domain financing market in the coming days. This is just in time for the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. auctions in Silicon Valley the last week of April.

Halloween costume company changes domain from bad to bad, "dash-com" domains launch.

I priced airfares from 3 major U.S. cities to San Diego on Orbitz, arriving Thursday April 23 and leaving Sunday April
Santa Monica loses UDRP for IAmSantaMonica.com.
Remember that guy Stephen Webb, who started showing up at domain conferences a couple years ago promoting his "Iamcityname.com" and "WeArecityname.com" domain names? He had a bit of success, striking deals with a couple cities and even selling IAmSeattle.com to the Space Needle in Seattle.
But one fo...
Technology company requests exception to ICANN rule.

Pool teams up with Quintaris to offer pre-orders domains for new TLDs.
In a move that will surely add confusion to an already crazy process, domain backordering service Pool.com is accepting pre-orders for non-existent domain names such as .xxx and .web.
The service accepts pre-orders for second level domain names on about 50 top level domain names...
DomainReport.ca - The domain name eee.ca was auctioned today after being picked up in yesterday's TBR. The winning price for this domain was $2,550 CAD. This is a domain that expired and wasn't renewed by it's previous owner.The appeal of this domain is that it is short, and contains all the same letter. "E" is also considered a premium letter. ...
The new series called Pitchmen launched last night on the Discovery Channel with the famous Billy Mays and Anthony Sullivan. They pitched 2 products in the first show. Impact Gel and GPS Pal.
GPS Pal happened to also have a domain name and was ranked well in the search engines which is Perfect before a launch
It's not every day you see a domain name like Raspberry.com hitting the PendingDelete domain drop list but here is your warning! Backorder it if you want a chance at owning it!

Morning Folks!! Do you know how to provoke thought? Can you provoke discussion? Can you make a domino fall without touching it? Can you make the middle domino fall without touching any of the others and making them fall? Oh, you probably never thought about that. When you do, you stretch your mind. You enlarge the boundaries. You may see things as ...

Last night's Domain Success webinar was HOT and VIPs** who missed it can catch it on "anytime" replay. Summary:Bruce Turkel has spent 25 year in the advertising business.
