Silver fell 25% over the past two days and gold is down 15% compared to its record-breaking $1,923.7/ounce September 6 value. Now I know this post isn’t about domain auctions, ICANN policies and so on but in my opinion, it’s good to at least acknowledge a few “outside world” things every now and then as a domain investor 🙂

September’s GreatDomains Auctions Ending in Less Than 4 Hours
Posted on 22 September 2011 by Andrei
A quick reminder: this month’s Sedo/GreatDomains auctions will end in less than 4 hours. If you didn’t get a chance to take a look at the domains that are being offered, click HERE and you’ll be taken to the main Sedo/GreatDomains auction page.
23 Sales (Grand Total: ~$120k) at the DOMAINfest NYC Auction, Including FijiIslands.com at $58,830, PropertyAppraisal.com at $23,530 and OrganicTea.com at $17,650

The results make it clear that it’s not 2007 anymore but the three previously mentioned top dollar sales (FijiIslands.com at $58,830, PropertyAppraisal.com at $23,530 and OrganicTea.com at $17,650) make the grand total seem “kind of ok” given the fact that this year’s NYC event wasn’t huge (it was a meet-up and not a conference).
So I Watched “Century of the Self”… Meh
Posted on 16 September 2011 by Andrei
Should domainers/entrepreneurs watch it? At least 10 people told me to watch Century of the Self up until this point and even though I was pretty much always disappointed after watching documentaries/movies that were recommended by “everyone”, I ended up sacrificing 4 hours of my time.

Say Hello To Facebook’s “Subscribe Button”
Posted on 14 September 2011 by Andrei
What will the subscribe button do? Basically, you’ll add a subscribe button to your profile and that button will make it possible for people you didn’t befriend to see your public updates. A VERY interesting feature for bloggers, celebrities and so on.
No, Skype Can’t Detect Malware – If You Receive a “Fishy” Skype Call, Decline It
Posted on 13 September 2011 by Andrei
Just got a “call” on Skype with a title similar to “System Message! Urgent Call” or something like that and thought I’d warn you guys about it. Needless to say, I declined and blocked the user in question but out of curiosity, I performed a Google search to find out how those people operate.
L.co.uk and LL.co.uk Auction Reminder
Posted on 01 September 2011 by Andrei
As some of you know, Nominet is releasing lots of L.co.uk and LL.co.uk domains through a series of auctions. You needed to pay an upfront fee for each domain in order to place a bid, I’m personally involved in ~30 auctions.
