I anticipate some very good information being contributed by Rick at:

I apologize if this has already been announced here at NP. I performed a search and didn't find any mention of it.

Cool - Thanks, I will keep an eye on that one for sure. :cy: I think his domaining story/history is one of the most interesting I have seen yet.

Yes, this blog has a lot of potential, and will be quite interesting to follow.

I discovered Ricks blog today as well and don't find the content easy to read.
Very narrow width of the column where the blog entries go and BIG fonts at the same time.

Also some more space within the content would be nice as well instead looking at a wall of letters :'(
But i am looking forward to see Ricks blog entries even though it would be a pain to read.

I am most probably the dissenter here. Do not misunderstand me, I have never met or spoken to Rick Schwartz and yet I have a great respect for this man who has come to an understanding of the current domain name business. What I think will happen though is that this may well be another blog exhorting todays values as the only valid values for investing in domains for the future, doing this without looking at the revolutionary change that by its very nature the internet and domain names thrive on.

I will be an avid reader of the blog of that I am sure, but I shall be more than amazed if Rick Schwartz ever comments positively on either ccTLD's, hacked domain names, or even the change that the flood of advertising dollars to the web will have on the nature of domaining.

I had read most of this somewhere before but that doesn't decrease the value. From my perspective this is what really stands out.
Everyone runs around and says they want to make a million dollars. But that is truly silly. It is the same thing as climbing to the top of a building or a mountain without a staircase, ladder, elevator, gear or some device to get you there incrementally. The map to making a million dollars is not making a million dollars. It is making a dollar a million times. It is making a PENNY 100 million times. So if you are STOPPED as I suggested, this is your first change. When you make a core change like that it affects other decisions down the line so now you have to reanalyze many things. Invent once and then repeat, repeat, repeat. The more you repeat and the faster you repeat it will determine everything else. $1 million, $10, million, $100 million, itโ€™s all based on the same recipe.

I shall be more than amazed if Rick Schwartz ever comments positively on either ccTLD's, hacked domain names, or even the change that the flood of advertising dollars to the web will have on the nature of domaining.
That doesn't make most of what he says of any less value. :imho: These concepts (with maybe the exception of organic typein traffic) apply to any .ext.

I will take an interest when Rick, the "domain king" realises there are languages other than english on the internet and does not stay in the past with the same tired old comments. For me his main achievement was seeing the potential before most others and picking up some gems, I have not seen a huge amount of progression from there! There are many more worthy than he who started a long time afterwards.

This of course is JMO

I agree WOT imo Frank Schiling's BLOG is the best read on the internet by far I actually find nothing else even close and I write a blog on domains only it is one niche. Frank's blog IMO is the best
