The Afternic Diaries: Mundane tasks of a domain name broker

My name is – wait, better leave that out, on second thought. I’m a junior domain broker at Afternic, the biggest domain brokerage platform owned by GoDaddy. We are giants. At least, that’s what the middle management tells us on casual Fridays. We have pineapple pizza and soda and we talk about kicking the competition’s […]

Daryl’s Domain Diaries: Chapter 7 – President George W. Bush, let .XXX become a reality!

The other night I was reading about how the damn Congress turned down the approval of the .XXX domains based upon some obscure obscenity laws. Then I went to my local drugstore and bought the latest Hustler and Penthouse. It would be a busy Saturday night. Fuck it. Need more beer and more pretty girls. […]

Daryl’s Domain Diaries: Chapter 6 – The Cool Domainer Chicks I met on Facebook

A year ago I started using Facebook after my buddies posted party pictures from a domain conference. Little did I know that my phone would be blown, eventually along with other parts of me. Beer is good and when I drink it I do crazy stuff. Like that day I talked to a policewoman asking […]

Daryl’s Domain Diaries: Chapter 5 – My lousy Thanksgiving dinner

A couple of years ago, Thanksgiving of 2002, I had this shitty experience at Thanksgiving dinner that forever maimed my very soul. But let me pop a cold one first. I get all bitchy just recalling it. Alright. My folks are not the brightest stars on this side of the galaxy. I told them once […]

Daryl’s Domain Diaries: Chapter 3 – Sex at Domainer Conferences, is it possible?

Been writing this since 5am as I cannot sleep. Last night it was yet another beerfest for me and my domainer buddies. Yes, I’ve a secret that I haven’t shared with anyone yet.

Daryl’s Domain Diaries: Chapter 2 – The Domain Conference Fiesta Cool-aid

Last year I attended two domainer conferences. At first, I thought it was the “shit”. Then I realized it was all about the people who thought they were the shit. Can’t complain. There was plenty of booze and nice looking female domainers. If you’re into the ripe type, that is. One of them approached me […]

Daryl’s Domain Diaries: Chapter 1 – The Stupid Newbies

Two days ago I was talking to this dude on DNF, I mean, he was totally making me mad. I popped a beer and went back to respond to his stupid comments. He put some domains up for evaluation; everyone said his domains were great. Of course, I had to disagree. Two .info and a […]
