A few domain name news stories for Wednesday.

GE loses domain name dispute. Did it fall on its own sword?
General Electric (GE) has lost a domain name dispute under UDRP for the domain GEEntertainment.com.
This is an interesting case for two reasons:

Burger King has delayed the launch of its Russian expansion until 2010 after failing to register the domain name burgerking.ru.

My great grandmother used to say that the Bible says the day will come when people are so terrible to the Earth, God will shut it down. Because as the 19th century naturalist John Muir famously wrote “when one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world???.

That's got to be $7 million to make the name ChaCha synonymous with mobile coupons.

Without money, you need to look here.Back to ChaCHa, TechCrunch points to an SEC filing that shows ChaCha as ...

I monitor the domain sales lists over at DNJournal and constantly look for trends in both keywords and TLD. To me these lists represent the state of the industry – a window-into what people are buying, where they are buying it, and how much they are willing to pay.
