Right on its 4th "birthday", my primary hard disk hit the digital Purgatory on New Year's Eve. It also took a secondary drive hostage, as if lightning had hit twice. I spent several hours wondering why would two admittedly "ripe" Western Digital drives fail on me, then I decided to go get a brand new
I love new years (and not just because it is a good excuse to drink champagne though I do give New Year's Eve bonus points on that count)!. I like New Year's Day even more. Regardless of whether the previous year was good, bad or indifferent, there is always something exciting about starting a new year with a fresh slate.
Elephant hunting and viral internet causes. Let's keep our Domain Dunce awards going with Bob Parsons' elephant shooting video and the aftermath. In March, GoDaddy founder Bob Parsons posted a video of him shooting a "problem elephant" in Zimbabwe. The video went viral after someone posted it to Change.org and asked people to boycott GoDaddy....
.Biz domain glimmers at Sedo. The prices of gold is sky high right now, and a golden domain is about to sell at Sedo. Gold.biz has a 16,000 euro bid and is scheduled to close on January 6. That's a heck of a price for a .biz domain, regardless of the keyword. At 16,000 EUR
The CountingSheep.com Sedo auction ended earlier today and the domain fetched $12,500. A pretty interesting domain and even if it's not a product name dot com, it has obvious uses. There's no doubt in my mind that it will eventually be turned into a site which helps people who have sleep problems.
This is a good
Happy New Year! Welcome back to another round of my series I call GoDaddy Goodies. This exclusive series includes a hand picked list of expired, no reserve domain names that are exclusively on public auction at GoDaddy.com . Each domain name is directly linked to the specific auction page for easy one click bidding or
A very nice 4 letter dictionary word domain name has been sold at Sedo.com for under $50K, Cart.com According to whois records, the buyers were Original Web Ventures Inc. The deal appears to have closed right around the Christmas holiday. A couple other domain name sales that grabbed my eye over at Sedo include: VitaminCenter.com
As the final hours of 2011 were ticking away, I was busy finalizing a deal I had been working on for around 6 months. I was able to acquire the domain name, Sayings.com, just as the year concluded. In fact, Escrow.com cleared my payment 15 minutes later than the company said it was closing (I
If you operate a website (or multiple sites) I think the new year is a good time to review your website disclaimer and privacy policy to make sure they are both up to date and accurate. I did this a few days ago, and there were very few changes to either, but it's a smart
The year is very young, but I made my first domain acquisition of the year. I purchased LittleBighorn.com on a NameJet auction yesterday afternoon. The domain name has a registration date of 1999. Little Bighorn is a historical landmark in the United States, and the National Parks Service has a monument there (Montana). You can
According to a tweet from Rick Schwartz, tickets for October's TRAFFIC conference in Ft. Lauderdale will go on sale beginning next week. Instead of pricing them in tiers by order date, TRAFFIC organizers are pricing them by number of tickets sold. Rick's Twitter post stated, "T.R.A.F.F.I.C.Registration opens next week. 35 Tickets @ $995, 65 Tickets...

WebSiteMagazine.com apparently thinks the new gTLD program launched in 2011, as it put it on its list of the "Biggest Web Blunders of 2011.

2011 was a great year for me, I have almost no complaints. I'm 19 years old and am enjoying every second of life. That being said there are always things that when we look back we wish we would have done so I am going to run through some of mine that relate to domain

Most people in the US have off today because of the way New Years fell. Many have chosen the start of the new year to begin an effort towards some goal such as weight loss or quitting a bad habit. I hope everyone reaches those goals but I'm guessing that many of those have chosen

Legendary uber-domainer, Mike Mann, is known for being a creative avalanche of sorts; his first book, "Make Millions and Make Change" is considered by many to be the Bible of compassionate entrepreneurship.

An articulated mannikin – can't quite call it "action figure" – of Steve Jobs, legendary founder of Apple, is in the works. The foot-tall effigy of Steve Jobs, made by the company In Icons, will be sold for $99 next month. It's much more detailed than simple bobble-head figures of Steve Jobs. Maybe a new
When domain investor Vincent Uy put high four figures into the acquisition of the domain name Sopa.com he never intended to use it as an acronym. After all, "sopa" means "soup" in Spanish and Portuguese and "sofa" in Filipino. It also means "shut up" in Greek – but Vincent bought it because it's a cool,...
