Domainers should probably get out more. No, this is not an article about life-work balance, or maintaining a social network, or the virtues of exercise, although all of those are important. Nor is it a call to consider taking a break from domains, or at least domain acquisitions – I wrote about...

Anyone know who sets pricing for expired .co domains that are classified as premium names? Just about any one word dictionary name that is shorter than 10 letters is tagged as a premium name, and the pricing seems rather arbitrary.
