So when I saw this story the other day, that the use of Domain Names were back being used in Super Bowl ads substantially more than Hashtags or Facebook Pages I knew immediately how big it was.

Hmm...I see the aftermarket on fire, investors buying and bidding up expired names!!
Yes maybe end user demand is a bit slow, but good domains are being bought up at HIGHER prices by investors.
The problem I see is investors selling CHEAP, so it's a buyers market right now...
I understand why Rick is buying like crazy in the past 12 months....he will do what he does BEST, sit, wait and CASH in latter on.
