Within the past week or two I started getting notifications that a version of a domain name that I owned was available for purchase. I’ve owned the .ORG for the domain name for 5 years or so now, but the .COM was taken (not being used).

These notifications that I started receiving were for the .COM version, and made it sound like they owned the domain and I could purchase it from them. I probably got 5 or 6 different versions of this email, from different people, so I started wondering what was going on. I figured out that the .COM version of the domain was actually expired though not yet released.

So I checked on Godaddy, and I had a backorder credit that hadn’t been used yet, so I setup the backorder for this .COM domain name that was coming up for deletion. The domain went into the “pendingDelete” state which usually lasts 5 days. This morning the domain was officially deleted

Godaddy came through and acquired the domain for me. So, now I am thinking. Should I email back the spammers who said they could get the domain for me and say “Thanks for the heads up”

Yes, I know I have a problem, a domain problem. I won’t bother telling you how many I have, but I did want to create a quick blog post with links to some of the new ones, along with a description of each

DotNetCommunity.com – I’ve not yet decided what exactly to do with this site yet, but I have a few ideas. We’ll see if I get the time to implement some of them soon! I got this domain from my good buddy Eric Duncan who got it off backorder during the summer. It took us three months, but we finally got the transferred!

MobileDroid.com – This one I’m still also torn on what to do with. I am thinking about writing some mobile phone applications to run on Google’s Android Operating System. If I do this, the site will likely be used for that.

For a list of other domains I own, and this is NO WHERE NEAR a complete list check out the About Chris Hammond page.

Checkout yet ANOTHER domain name! Yes, I do own too many domain names. www.domoticsblog.com is the future home of the most prominent Home Automation blog on the web! Check it out as the site begins to come...
