Burbank.com is better than 500 mediocre domains and I suspect he realized that early on and made the bold move to buy and develop. He has done a nice job of developing it.

I think he will make for a good interview since he's in the trenches and not sitting on the sideline with a bunch of cash making strategic purchases like most of the big players. He's fighting his way to the top. Very respectable.
very well said seabass!!!

Elliot reminds me of sahar when he first came inn to domaining.

Elliot is one of the most respected domainers and newbie in field.

So I say do interview and for someone to leave corp America, developing geo names, mini sites and less then 2 years in the area he is an inspiration for all of us. Just like sahar when he first started

Right now I wouldn't be charging on cards lol. Cash is king and pay cash for developements and names.

Loved the Rick interview. Great job.

A country code top-level domain (ccTLD) is an Internet top-level domain generally used or reserved for a country or a dependent territory.

I doubt it. I reckon he's talking about ccTLD's in the true sense of the definition. TLDs intended for country specific websites (rather than 'vanity' ccTLD extensions like .me, .cd, .tv .cc etc).

That's just my feeling though...

Seabass - Thank you for the compliment. It's been a lot of work, but I love what I do.

The past several days, I've been re-developing Lowell.com - building the directory by hand like I did with Burbank.com. Traffic has jumped on Burbank.com and I am hoping for the same with Lowell.com. Getting advertisers will be a challenge, but I am ready to embrace it (or hire someone who will). I've also been working on some mini-sites and doing various testing to see what works best.

I am happy to share what I know and have learned... Tune in to Chef Patrick's interview and feel free to drop me a note.
