The announcement by the Library of Congress that it has acquired the entire Twitter database of messages – several billions of it – might seem like trivial to some.
In fact, the only trivial thing I can think of, is that if you tweet, you can now consider yourself officially published. Not many people have achieved
The new weekly domain sales chart is out at DNJournal.com. A pair of six-figure sales head our new weekly Top 20 list. Five ccTLDs and a pair of non .com gTLDS joined the 13 .com domains on the all extension leader board.

Sedo is reporting strong domain name sales over the past week, although it doesn't have any of the six figure deals we've become spoiled accustomed too. The company reported about $850,000 USD in disclosed sales, not including smaller transactions.
At the top of the list is Games1.com, sold to a
Social networking and adult entertainment company snaps up two generic domain names.

Energy company and bank invest in better domain names.
There's little better than owning a nice, short domain name for your company. It's part of the reason I sprung for DNW.com.

Registrar getting lots of commercial submissions — but few good ones.
After critics panned Go Daddy's Super Bowl commercials (again) this year, the company went to the marketing playbook and created a contest for customers to make their own commercials. The top prize is $100,000, which would buy you about 10,000 domain names.

While I think it's always smart to register domain names in an industry in which you are familiar, there are plenty of times where this isn't feasible or sensible. When you aren't entirely familiar with a particular industry, looking at some of the page titles in industry specific websites can give you good ideas about

Last week, I completed the sale of WanChai.com, a Hong Kong geodomain name, and I am now looking to sell KwunTong.com. Kwun Tong is a highly populated urban area in Hong Kong, which has seen remarkable growth over the last several years. Although the population of the Kwun Tong district is much higher than that

Just a quick divergence from the world of domains to give a shout out to a great new service from one of Mister B's friends. It's called Shutl and their mission is to provide almost immediate delivery of goods ordered online.

I've had a number of people ask me how I built out downwind.com.au and what software I used to do it. The technology for building out a website is not difficult to use and doesn't involve a degree in computer science from some expensive university. It's actually all quite easy to do.
The other day I went to an Internet show and noticed that every s...
