A well-known domain blogger apparently faced a family situation of serious proportions yesterday and he made an announcement of "Pausing" his posts.

Also, out of respect for his family situation I removed a recent post that...

My previous site flip post generated a lot of interest and over 1500 views, so I decided to post about another one. While in the previous post I didn't post any details that can help identify the site in respect to the buyer and since the transaction was relatively recent - about a year ago,
While we normally do not publish news releases about domain names that are listed for sale, we thought this one was worth a note: Ebook Solution Provider DNAML is accepting bids for the domain name eBook.com, which they are considering to sell as "part of management?s recent decision to streamline DNAML?s focus on its core

Days after Facebook.com won a UDRP decision to gain ownership of Facebok.com , a large batch of "less stellar" Facebook.com typo domains are being deleted Wednesday.

.Jobs expansion plans hit a snag, but it's probably minor. Following an outcry from the online job board industry, ICANN's Board Governance Committee (BGC) agreed to reconsider opening up the .jobs space carte blanche. I doubt anything will come of this reconsideration request, even if the BGC recommends to the Board that it reverse its...

Here is another example of creating a brand but not protecting it with the more common spelling in the virtual world. Air Optix® is the brand name of contact lenses by CIBA Vision which is a Novartis AG company. Last night I had the TV on but wasn't really watching it and I heard a
I was just informed of some of the Snapnames/Moniker live auction inventory for the DomainFest conference in Prague next month, and there are several fantastic domain names up for sale, including Restaurants.com.?

I was looking through some upcoming NameJet dropping domain auctions via FreshDrop, and I noticed something that I found to be appalling.

That's right folks, I'll be attempting something I've never done before – two broadcasts in one day! Since I will be away at a conference for the rest of the week and weekend I realized this was my only chance and I thought – well we just can't have a week without MorganLinton.tv – right?
