I'd like to say heard it here first, but credit where credit due.

That Sherlock Holmes 'Scandiman' (he also doubles up as a Viking BeerMonster) broke the story on <removed>

Insurance.com bought Insurance.mobi
Heres the link:

A quote:

"insurance.mobi was purchased by Insurance.com, an independent, online insurance agency which enables consumers to instantly compare and buy competitive auto insurance quotes directly from more than a dozen leading insurance companies. "We see the long-term value of the mobile internet," said Joe Singleton, Director of Information Technology, Insurance.com. "The .mobi domain will be a valuable tool in continuing to build our future consumer offerings."

Rep greedily snaffled :sold:

Yeah, I thought he is switching his entire persona to Borat ...

Forget that. Said i'd be back, didn't i?

Excellent!

You'll be spoiled for choice. Want one with or without 'those' glasses?

 

[garrett200]

I heard a number lately about insuance.com selling something like 100 million in policies last year!

Pretty darn good for a typo!

See, if he showed up like that to work I think he'd get a lot more done. Instead he sets up a smoking tent so he can go puff stogies with the other big wigs.

To keep this on topic, I'll venture that the fine folks at insurance.com have lobbied in his hallowed smoking tent so maybe Insurance.mobi might be the first .mobi with political representation

Yes, and not just at work. But I think the gun thing is over-rated (although if he could still travel back in time he can get lots of stuff 'insured' that way, just pretending I'm on topic now). Anyway, IMHO it's all in the glasses.

See the one thing that Borat and the original Arnie version above have in common is 'those' glasses.

If the softly-softly Governator version were to also put those glasses back on from time to time (assuming they are the genuine article, and I would welcome your expert opinion on that question), he would be able to see things from the perspective of those most in need of persuasion.

They don't seem to own insurance.net, .org, .info, .biz, .us, .tv, or any other extension I know of. They could probably afford to acquire them, but haven't.

Yet they wanted and got insurance.mobi.

Nice news.

A most excellent point IMHO.

Snoop would no doubt appreciate it!

I guess my wwwinsurance.mobi might have been a nice snag after all. Might even end up being one of my best domains, depending on what happens.

Thank you, but in the grand scheme of things, I fail to see what he has to do with this news. It is time to move onward and upward. Not look back at speedbumps.

You'll find the answer here Snoop will not let this news go 'unchallenged'...

Yes. I know that thread. Already left my thoughts in it and have moved on. Not going to let him rent space in my head.

On my Hp PC you don't either, but people still do. I think some of them are conditioned to. We'll see, it's still a lotto ticket, but just better odds now

don't forget any naysayer won't touch on points like this. :hehe:

it is sometimes healthy to have other views though.

this is a hard point to wash over & one we often make.
hard to see anything but good things about the purchase & impending development by insurance.com :imho:
