I was renewing some domain names at Godaddy today and found it tough to find valid coupon codes that will give me a discount on the renewals. After a bit of searching finally found one that still works so I thought I'd make a note of it in case anyone else needs it – it's ZINE7.

Snuggie For Kids Rebrands It's Blanket With Sleeves | Mark As Read |
Snuggie for kids has been a big hit for Snuggie™ lovers around the world but when the snuggie for kids blanket with sleeves was first launched, it was called Snugglette™.

www.FJVW.com | Mark As Read |
Much to my chURLgrin, Fletcher Jones Volkswagen went with the acronym here. FWIW, methinks FJVW are just too weird letters to string together.

www.latenightwithjimmyfallon.com | Mark As Read |
If ALLCAPS acronyms (eg, www.FJVW.com) are at one end of the spectrum, alllowercase looooong URLs are at the other. And adding dubs sure doesn't help in either case. Unfortunately, like Jimmy Fallon himself, this URL is not funny, just funny lookin'.

WyomingTourism.org | Mark As Read |
Ode to a good URL...Behold the proper way for an URL to be displayed.No major flubs, no leading dubs.Just Leading Caps, now that's the haps.This URL may be a non-dot-com but it's quite simply tha-diggity-bomb!It's just so sad, it's also a bad ad.

exploreMinnesota.com | Mark As Read |
Unlike Wyoming, Minnesota's URL is in a state of disrepair. Staggering the words across different lines creates spacing issues and makes it hard to tell if the URL is exploreMinnesota.com or if they want you to explore Minnesota.com. Even that cursive script is hard to read. There are just so minney things wrong with this URL!

Sedo reported the sale of Zookie.com in their Reported Sales section this week.The namesold for$25,000. Now, believe it or not, zookie isn't a huge generic term - or even a dictionary term.
