Losing Your Religion (Domains)
There is a disturbing trend in UDRP decisions that are making it more difficult that ever for domain investors.  The panels charged with implementing and deciding the UDRP policy, are moving further away from previous precedents and forging new ground in their interpretation of the rules. As a result, many domain [...]]]></description>

.US Generics On Auction
Great set of generics and keyword .us domains on Bido.com today.  We have recently seen the light on the .us TLD and am making a concerted effort to add a few gems into our portfolio.  The way we figure it, it isn&#8217;t going anywhere and holds much of the same [...]]]></description>

Big Sale for Bido

Bido.com had a great sale yesterday that has not been widely reported.  The UDRP.com transaction might be the highest ticket sale to date of this auction house that is only a little over a year old.  We have been involved with Bido from the beginning and are happy to see [...]]]></description>

Apple News Is Always Ripe
Just spend a few minutes listing to the new product announcement coming from Apple on their newest product innovation. The iPad.

We are entering the Bido.com fray with a few keyword domains up for auction.  
FoodVacuums.com
 and
ExerciseCenters.com
Because this is really a test, we expect these to go much lower than their worth. Estibot.com values FoodVacuums.com at $3100 with $3 PPC values. 
 They also value ExerciseCenters.com at $3800 with very high advertiser competition. Act now [...]]]></description>

Fabulous Down?
We have been trying to register a few gems for nearly 90min with no success. Seem to be getting a &#8220;No Connection to the Registry&#8221; after a purchase request has been made. What doesn&#8217;t make sense is that you are able to get through to check availability through the registry (VeriSign)

Got a note into [...]]]></description>

Read an article recently in the blog of one of the domain industry&#8217;s true icons, Michael Berkens, that highlighted the negativity and mean-spirited reactions many of the leading personalities get, from within the domainer community, when they make a mistake [...]]]></description>

Domainers have been fighting the negative stereotypes of “Cyber Squatter” and “Spammer/Scammer” since the beginning. We came across another example of why the public continues to lump us in with the worst elements of our industry
The Voice of Capitol Hill
In this example, a Washington DC reporter, is falling down on the job [...]]]></description>
