Neustar to acquire .tel ?
After news of Afilias acquiring the .mobi registry broke out, the obvious question is: Will Neustar acquire the .tel registry to even out the balance?
There are hardly any benefits from such an acquisition.
The number of registered .mobi domains is approximately one million. That’s one million domains that can be developed, pointed to content or simply [...]

FLOOD: TechCrunch – Mashable – Engadget – Business Insider – ReadWriteWeb
Looks like the Domaining.com feed has been taken over by a group of geek tech magazines, such as TechCrunch – Mashable – Engadget – Business Insider – ReadWriteWeb that have flooded the normal domaining flow and content.
It’s very strange that Francois has added these generic publications written by non-domainers to the Domaining.com feed. What is [...]

The State Department confirms: typos can be bad for you
It appears that the State Department has confirmed that one of the reasons the Nigerian terrorist, Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab, was allowed entry into the US was that his name was spelled with a typo.
This really gives our original article and follow-up post additional credibility. Once again, DomainGang is a pioneer in tying current domestic and [...]
Hold that thought – register it as a .com first – ok, go ahead
A few days ago we mentioned how the Nigerian terrorist who attempted to blow up the Detroit bound Delta Airliner has a name so difficult to spell, that no domain speculator in their right mind would register it.
Never underestimate the ability of domainers to waste money!
UmarFaroukAbdulmutallab.com is now live after someone registered it that same [...]
