FREE Automatic Logo Generation For Domains (free)

I got tired of creating logos for domains. I just WISHED there was some API that would create logos automatically on demand. So I created such a service: www.logolava.com This service is currently in free beta. The service may break at anytime, and this is the first public announcement of...

.com drop order

Sure enough, the domains dropped in order of their updated time. "But wait, there's more." If you add exactly 140 hours to the updated time (5 days 20 hours) and you look at the time (18:02 is 11:02 AM Pacific time), then compare the actual registered time of the drop caught name, you can see...

.com drop order

Today's drop. Again, they followed the order exactly of update time exactly. Odds of 8 items being in any certain order is 1 in 40,320. And they followed a similar pattern with timing, although today's magic ratio was closer to 2.45 vs yesterday's 2.5. And again the earlier names had lower...

Afternic sales agent harassing me

Sure, but when someone sends multiple requests to stop them, you should honor that and take them off the list. But instead they can just say, "Hmm.. I'll pretend I never saw that request, there is a chance I'll still get a sale, and it's not me that is being harassed, so who cares?" It's a...

Afternic sales agent harassing me

What do I have to do to get an Afternic sales rep (@Matt Holden) to stop harassing me? I've repeatedly asked them to stop contacting me but they are relentless. Very unprofessional. They do not honor my requests to stop e-mailing me.

Is Escrow.com foolproof?

I've got my largest transaction coming in the pipe, around $20k. Is Escrow.com foolproof? My gut tells me nothing is foolproof and there can always be reasons a deal dies, even after they have paid. What if the money was stolen for example? Has anyone heard of a deal going through Escrow.com...

Taking screenshots of your registrar account to prove domain ownership - LOL

Afternic and Godaddy: I'm looking at you, kid. Context: So, it's time to add your most recent 10 domains to the usual platforms. You go on Afternic and paste in the list ... and inevitably 1 or 2 of the names will have been previously listed on the platform by another user. There is no...

.com drop order

I'm trying to use API calls as efficiently as possible. Different registrars have different rules about API usage. I know of at least one, for example, that has a daily limit. So you'd want to focus usage of them, as an analogy: if you only had a certain number of bullets, you'd probably want...

Taking screenshots of your registrar account to prove domain ownership - LOL

I agree that TXT records shouldn't be the only way, I was just suggesting them since they already use that method to verify domains in general as one of the options. But I guess my point was whatever set of options they usually use to verify the ownership (i.e. when listing a domain) those...

Taking screenshots of your registrar account to prove domain ownership - LOL

When adding a name to the system, they use TXT records to verify ownership. HOWEVER - if you run into the case when someone else already listed the name -- you can't add the name at all. Instead you have to contact support asking them to first remove the old name before you can add it again...

services Escrow.com - a complete joke?

I may lose a $2200 sale because Escrow.com has no apparent sense of professionalism or urgency. Anyone else share an experience like this? An offer came in which I accepted, but I noticed Escrow.com still had my old name on their account, and I have since changed my name everywhere (including...

dustball dot com (22 years old, registered by me in 1998) Sale includes domain, website, IP/brand etc I am talking with a prospective buyer who is offering a 3x multiple (about $100,000). This would seem fair, if not for the case that the site is currently undervalued since I have NOT worked...

domain sparassis.com

Yes "Sparassis crispa can be very tasty, but should be thoroughly cleaned before use, as the folds can contain dirt and other material, as it grows and envelops objects around it such as pine needles. Antonio Carluccio reports that European Sparassis crispa should be picked when creamy white...

Bulk DNS hosting for parked domains

My understanding is, even when you can CNAME a root domain, that makes all other entries invalid as you can't have a CNAME and a record of another type on the same level. Even cloudflare's website says as much at...

Troy, yes, thanks, I did appreciate the timely and professional response to my support request. Very good for a weekend day. Thank you. I will suggest that the instructions be changed on your website? The instructions on www2.bodis.com/account/add-domains still tell the user to make a CNAME...

Afternic sales agent harassing me

I inquired about a domain name. It was overpriced so I declined their offer. Now they won't stop e-mailing me, month after month. December, I reply, politely: "Nevermind, the min. offer was 10x what I was willing to pay anyway." January: They continue e-mailing, I say: "Stop contacting me...
