(1) Janine.tv
(2) Popular female first name. Good results in both Overture: 21897/mth, and Wordtracker: 3567/day.
(3) Development potential as a personal website for anyone using the name "Janine".
you may like it, but so do the Trademark owners. I would get my money back as you will undoubtedly have a hard time selling it and could potentially have it taken away by UDRP very easily. There is even a TM on Sports Nation TV.

Sticking to the original thread rules may I offer todays new hand regs...
NAME ONE: DRIVINGTEST.TV
1) Only post what you feel is a great hand-registration. mybigvideopalace.tv is NOT a good hand-reg. You all are smart enough to know what is good and what is crap.
DrivingTest .tv
2) Explain why it is good, and why you chose it.
My first reason is that it is a defensive/pro-active reg for other names I own
DrivingTest TV.com
and
DrivingTest TV.co.uk
The name is familiar to EVERYONE who has ever driven a car in the territory in which it is intended to be used. That market is worth over $4 billion a year.
3) Explain how it could be dev'd.
DrivingTest .TV will be used as a supplement to any driving lessons taken on by an individual. The driving school offering lessons will be able to add, as part of their service, access (either free or for a small amount) to the DrivingTest.Tv site, where there will be a collection of aids, videos, tests, films, scenarios, etc that can help a person with both the theoretical side of their test AND the practical side.
NAME TWO: NOVELIST.TV
1) Only post what you feel is a great hand-registration. mybigvideopalace.tv is NOT a good hand-reg. You all are smart enough to know what is good and what is crap.
Novelist .tv
2) Explain why it is good, and why you chose it.
Chosen because the majority of people who ever read a book would like to hear about the authors 'take' on the characters and plot, the motivators in writing the story, and generally about the novelist themselves. The market is also VERY large.
3) Explain how it could be dev'd.
Quite simply, you sit down and film the novelist talking about their new book. Most novelists I know (OK, I only know two personally) tend to be very caught up in their work and want to share their thoughts.
I would pick one book every week, interview the author of that book and gradually build up, what would hopefully become, a considerable collection of authors discussing their works - many of which will go on to become best-sellers.
Revenue comes from straight sponsorship of the site by publishers, book stores, and from surround screen and on-screen ads.
I like this because the name is media oriented, makes sense as a standalone (such as for a viewer) , might have decent potential for a fairly wide range of subdomains (such as genres, geos, and descriptives like "reality"), also would probably work as a directory/channel guide type setup or as a network.
Its focused/topical enough that the tv.tv aspect makes some sense to me, as shows and tv are a "naturally occurring" combination. Shows can work as a noun or a verb, depending on the eventual site design.
Development plans: Some ideas indicated above, still thinking about it.
Thanks RL, ExtremeSports is a great name, if you have patience, you may be able to flip that in some time for some great money, the problem is with ES watchers, they are often outside, and not inside watching TV! But.., the snow thaws for the skiiers, the rivers freeze for the kayakers, etc... We all have our down time....even surfers have a bad rainy season when they cant surf....the diehards are watching tv about their sport, during the offseason, or traveling elsewhere.....
not a hand reg - apologies - but recently got barrister.tv - coulkd be a job placement for barristers or a channl dedicated to barrister networking or what it takes to become a barrister in the commonwealth

Skeptic.tv is awesome. There's tons of cool video that you can use on it. Look for Richard Dawkins on YouTube. You should join the RichardDawkins.net forum and put the domain in your signature. You won't find any group of people more skeptical those people guys/gals. I wish I had that domain. If you want to trade let me know.
I registered toysmart.tv. Disney used to have the trademark. The trademark is dead now. The others COM, Net etc... are taken, but only parked. I imagine toysmart.tv (read either as Toy Smart or Toys' Mart) could be an "educational toys" site where all the stay at home mom's get information about what to buy their kids. Kids are big business.
I also picked up MyEx.tv from somebody on NP. That's not a hand reg, but I think it is cool sounding anyhow.
