By Jarred Cohen, Bido COO
It's been brought to our attention on a few occasions, more so recently, that vote fraud occurs at times on Bido. While our listings to sales ratio is attractive, many sellers wish to take advantage of this and increase their chances of selling their very own domains. To do this, some sellers are asking other people in the...
Sedo has provided us with statistics and individual auction logs showing that DDOS attacks against their site on Thursday did not materially impact sales results from their GreatDomains October auction - in fact overall results were better than they were in the previous month's auction.
I wish I was able take the credit for this, but I cannot. My buddy Daniel Dryzek of DanielDryzek.com and MeetDomainers.com just shared with me this great list on Twitter. The list is made up of all the 1 and 2 character .de domain names registered earlier today. He also has a full list of
If you've been keeping up with the news lately, I'm sure you've heard about the Heenes Family, who allegedly told authorities their son was missing and might've been in a homemade, helium-filled balloon. Their son was hiding in the attic, which was allegedly known by both of the parents. And what could these parents of
DDOS to blame for problems during auction yesterday.
Sedo's outage during the .de domain name auction yesterday was not due to intense bidding activity, but was actually a distributed denial of service (DDOS) attack, reports the company.
In a statement released today, Sedo wrote:

Marchex takes a big hit from product change at Yahoo.
Back in August I wrote about potential exposure Marchex has to the Yahoo-Microsoft search deal, particularly around Yahoo's paid inclusion service. Marchex grossed about $2 million from the product in the second quarter of this year, but the product's future was up in the air

Financial media company Bloomberg Finance has lost a domain name dispute with a small town real estate agent over the domain BloombergRealty.com.
Bloomberg filed a case with National Arbitration Forum, arguing that the domain name BloombergRealty.com violated the media company's tradema...
Second domain arbitration loss for financial media company today.
Earlier today Domain Name Wire wrote about financial media company Bloomberg losing a domain name arbitration case for BloombergRealty.com. Apparently today isn't a good day for financial media companies and domain names: Dow Jones just found itself on the losing end of a case for M...
"The Beginner's Guide to Screwing Up Royally", that pretty much sums it all up. DENIC had a chance to do something truly great and but after making one bad decision after another, they ended up turning the introduction of one and two character .de domains into a fiasco for everyone except a handful of people.
I have been a fan of the TV show American Choppers featuring the Teutul family for sometime now and it has been fun not only watching the show, but watching the business grow over the years.
At the end of last season, the Teutul family was breaking up with heavy fueds between the father (Paul Sr.),
A couple of hours ago I did a break down of the new business launch and website launch of PaulJrDesigns.com here .
A couple things I want to point out and why I wrote what I wrote.

There's been a lot of discussion about mini sites these past few days. Well, I guess there's been a lot of discussion about them over the past year, but it seems to have come to a head recently. I have been a proponent of mini sites, and for the most part, I've had pretty good

Morning Folks!! Last year at this time we were in a fog. Business fog. Business runs on preparing for tomorrow. Projecting where you are going and how fast you will get there. When you can’t do that, big problems will occur and they did and they have. Now things are much clearer. The fear of the fog may be gone but the moment of reality is soon to ...

Yep... The world is a better place without it. Now, as I am sure you already knew, I have been one of the most vocal critics of Rick's services over the past year. I have also been one of the biggest fans because I admire anybody who is involved with development one way or another. So, I am going to be brutally honest here and just tell it like it ...
