Hey Pelle, You might also check out forums, such as http://domainstate.com http://domainstate.com and http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=98 http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=98. Also, http://dnjournal.com http://dnjournal.com is worth a look, and possibly contact the guy who writes that, Ron Jackson, and the other guy, Richard Meyer. Funny you should mention domain names today. Just a minute ago I thinking about them seriously, one of my names specifically, http://StudentLoanConsulting.com http://StudentLoanConsulting.com. I know it's long, three words, yada, yada, yada, but after reading this NYT article: ""New Plan Ties Reduced College Loan Payments to Income": http://bit.ly/lc4Ev http://bit.ly/lc4Ev and looking at some of those Dept. of Education websites and calculators it seemed like, damn, people are gonna need help figuring this shit out. Anyway, check out those sites I mentioned. Here's another interesting domain-name related article from today: "GoDaddy Files Patent for Method of Selling Equity in Domain Names": http://bit.ly/JGO4n http://bit.ly/JGO4n -@chrisco PS: Here's the listing I just made on dnforum: http://www.domainstate.com/showthread.php3?s=&threadid=100924 http://www.domainstate.com/showthread.php3?s=&threadid=1...

So are those forum listings actually worth doing? I'm probably going to list with sedo, so I could just add a link to sedo from the forum? I saw the Godaddy patent news. They beat me to it, I was thinking of something like that myself. It will be interesting to see what they do with it.

  Good question on the forum listings, I don't know. The DomainState Forum is free, however, so the cost is just a few minutes of time. RE GoDaddy patent thing. Yes, interesting. Can they get a patent on that? I guess maybe if the process is new, unique, non-obvious, etc. They have a Premium Domain name feature on their site, which let's owners of domain names offer them for sale through GoDaddy, but the commission is real high. If you go that route, GoDaddy promotes the name when someone searches for it or a similar name.
