Registered in 1998, the domain name Scrapbook.com operators used the Scrapbook brand commercially in 2000, according to the application’s particulars.
In 2007, the company acquired the company Keeping Memories Alive and their domain name Scrapbooks.com.
Scrapbooking is a method of preserving, presenting and arranging personal and family history in the form of a book, box or card.
It’s an ongoing trend among owners of generic domain names, following the decision by SCOTUS on the Booking.com trademark application.
Since then, dozens of generic domain names have been applied to be registered as trademarks, inclusive of the TLD.
As of January 5th, 2021, BOOKING.COM is a registered trademark with the USPTO.
