A lot of us earn a living online and it’s easy to say things like “wow, I can’t believe I worked x hours in a row” but in reality, how much did you really work? Seriously, how much did you really work if we define “work” as something that either makes you money now or will help you make money in the future (gaining knowledge, for example).

Whenever you hear something like “I can’t believe someone bought Lnvestors.com thinking that it was Investors.com”, don’t assume that it can’t happen to you. It obviously won’t happen if you’re paying close attention but if you’re like me, you’re often thinking about a million things at any given point, so mistakes can and will occur.

Humans aren’t perfect and this economic climate tends to bring out the worst in most people but situations such as the SOPA drama manage to restore my faith in humanity every once in a while.

So I saw “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps” yesterday and while it’s better than the original one in my opinion (which is pretty rare), it still kind of left me saying… “meh”. The acting wasn’t bad and I like Michael Douglas, it’s just that as a businessman and an investor, such movies don’t really impress me.

I’ve been involved in quite a few online industries: domaining, affiliate marketing, hosting, services and so on. All of these have one thing in common: every once in a while, there’s a “this industry is dead” vibe that takes over.

In my opinion, the answer is no. Yes, it has obviously evolved and you can’t compare a website from 1996 to the current ones. But that’s not what I’m referring to when I mention the word “fundamentally”, what I’m trying to explain is that the #1 way to interact with the Web has not changed and in my opinion, it will not change: domains.

As a domainer, you hear certain expressions so often that they start losing their meaning. A lot of times, you need to see offline examples in order to understand just how true some of them are.

So a short while ago, someone contacts me via email and asks for some development advice. It happens every once in a while, no problem at all. Glad to help. But the person I’m referring to now, when contacting me, basically acted as if I owed him something and that’s just plain wrong.

Yeah, yeah… gold is a hedge against inflation. Ok, I got that part. But over the past few years, it has risen in price dramatically and these days, pretty much everyone (from your neighbor to your local TV show host and so on) recommends it as an investment.

… just a quick question: do you really think that “more regulation” is the way to go? Be careful what you wish for guys because that wish just might come true.
