Great week this week. Fantastic for Shane the businessman and domainer, bad for Domain Shane. I'll go into more detail in the next couple days.  Many of the reports you read from non attendees about events will be missing some details and back stories that you will never know.  There are some hilarious stories that will never be published but will be talking about for many years to come.  The Bugatti story alone has already become a legend and a fable but one I will let others try and recount. I'm just going to show you a list of domains I like this weekend.  PantyLines.com  Not a huge problem f... Read More »

Another fantastic night last night with exotic cars, Sam at the Viper room and after party talk.  It's absolutely amazing how much business is done after or off site during these conferences.  Enough of the small talk, it's 1:30 in the morning and I'll try and put together a semi buzzed daily list. Cunu.com   Beautiful CVCV that will certainly fetch a nice price Sinks.org   Sinks are catching on.  Just shaved in one this morning Fights.org   The fight video market is still going strong.  People love combat.  Especially between two girls.  Think I'm lying?  Look at the searches C...

You may have noticed I didn't have a list yesterday. If you've ever been to these conference things you realize there isn't a lot time to post. It was aided by the fact that I fell deathly ill oyn the plane and sweated and threw up for the next 15 hours. Sick twice in 20 years and they are both here at the conference. Not a coincidence. Here are today's names. UniqueProperty.com Can't think of a better company name for a domain seller CodersCamp.com "Look at that camp, I've never seen a camp for albinos" "Those aren't albinos, that's coders camp" MotelsHotels.com Two keywords, one price LPSG...

As you're reading this I'm on my way to LA for DomainFest.  That does not mean my home is available for theft as my wife and our GIANT Great Dane "Thor" are currently watching the castle. It does mean that if it snows I would appreciate it if you would shovel my driveway.  Now onto today's names. PS:  We just opened the new DomainShaneFacebook page.  We would love a little like in the right hand corner. OHX.com  First three letter dot com in a while at Namejet.  Not for the poor Overwrite.com  Underwrite would be better. Ironic isn't it? 1999 Birthday 6841.com  I'm guessing this goes... Read More »

Hoping to unveil a new layout to the blog this weekend if all goes well.  Some will like it, some will not.  Kind of like my new haircut that I also will be unveiling this weekend.  So as you can see, its going to be a very exciting two days.  Now here are the names. Nitty.com   The kind of name that can bring a good price because its cute and easy to say.  Pick up Gritty.com and you have a nice pair.   5 years ago this was $200.  Let's see how much it brings 6939.com You know I like NNNN.com domains and this is a real purty one CBJO.com  Great letters and the O for Organization is a...

Here we go again.  Another rough day of names.  Remember you don't have to spend money.  Just kidding we have to spend a little each day but let's not spend too much on these.   Not the cream of the crop.   Tough picking today.  Here you go. Be Careful.  PS if you really want to screw up your day, buy one of those Facebook typos.  6495.com  Great numeric.  I see $2k a coming. BehaviorModification.com  I always tell me daughter this is what she needs.  In reality, probably more what I need but isn't that what parenting is?  Teaching them to be the person you wish you were. Blitzer... Read More »

Sedo has a pretty good auction closing today.  Going after a few names myself.  Of course you won't see those names on my list.  That would be silly.   While I have you.  Anyone interested in me doing a daily newsletter of names with no bids?   Let me know, in the meantime here are today's names. Gentler.com   Call me soft but I really like this name.  With 15 bids it seems that other people agree.  Under $500 is a good price IMO Soulmates.com  I don't think it will meet reserve but a beautiful name for a matchmaker site. BestApartment.com 13 year old domain.  I don't want AN apar... Read More »

Oops. Forgot to hit "publish" so a little late.  So happy to see Apple blow away the numbers. I make a lot of economic predictions and invest my money accordingly.  I've made a ton of wrong calls but I sticking to my guns in Apple over the last 10 years has more than made up for all the mistakes.  Domains can do the same thing. One great sale can more than offset the dust bunnies. Now onto the names. HealthReform.com  Now THIS is something we all need  CoffeeRoast.com  Never heard of cooking a roast basted in coffee but I may not be exactly on the right track of the definition of coffee roas...

Looks like there are a bunch of blogs jumping on the daily lists bandwagon.  I realize I'm not the first and won't be last list maker but even I am getting tired of seeing all the new daily lists.  So thank you for coming back each day and spending a little time here as I realize you have choices in your daily list.  A list so easy to make that anyone can do it.  Here you go and yes, it's one of the worst lists in a while.  Tough to find much of anything today. Surgeon.org  Sounds like an organization that has high dues. Nederlands.net  Not sure this is the right plurality.  The no bidders... Read More »

This time next week many of us will be at DomainFest   Not much talk about the show this year.   We'll see how that translates but Oversee has been less than outgoing with the promotion.  I don't think they've even announced the winner to their little fantasy domaining contest.  I'm going because of the people that are going, not for the seminars anyway.  GBCO.com  18 years old.  Like the co at the end. SteelBars.com  You sell steel bars?  No? Sell it to the people that do KTMI.com  17 year old domain with solid letters.  One more year and she's legal AsbestosFree.com  The asbe... Read More »
