Domain Shane: The screenshots below are examples of buyers of domains from the past year that have either developed their sites, or purchased an upgrade domain and have redirected their acquisition to an existing website.
VirginIslandsYachtCharters.com sold for $8,000 via Patrick Carleton. Dang, that domain is a mouthful, but it’s actually a big upgrade from the not-so-radio-friendly VIYCStThomas.com. “Virgin Islands Yacht Charters is the premier bareboat charter business in the US Virgin Islands and are conveniently located on the East End of St Thomas, USVI.”

Vavada.com sold for $5,000 at Sedo, and they buyer upgraded from Vavada.net. The gambling site features slots, poker, roulette and more. The company appears to be based in Curaçao, a Dutch Caribbean island, while the site’s social media channels are in the Russian language.

MrMindful.com sold for $3,000 at Sedo, and the owner is pitching his “cognitive coaching and mindfulness” program. “Entrepreneurs and high achievers depend on Mr. Mindful’s neuroscience-based training to unlock their full potential and eliminate negative thought patterns so they can excel.”

AGTB.com sold for $2,560 at Sedo, and it’s always nice to see LLLL.com domains put to good use. “Anglo-Gulf Trade Bank, launching in late 2017, will provide innovative trade finance solutions and other associated banking services to our commercial clients globally. Headquartered in Abu Dhabi, offices in London, Manchester, Moscow, Riyadh, Mumbai and Cairo will follow quickly.” They also own the longer AngloGulfTradeBank.com.

B2BQuotes.com sold for $2,495 at Sedo, and it’s the home of a company based in Montreal. “Founded in 2017, B2BQuotes.com has become the best reference tool to find trustworthy service providers for your web marketing projects. We can help you for any type of project ranging from a simple one page web site to a fully-fledged and optimized e-commerce website with custom programming, SEO and social media campaign.”

MyCougar.com sold for $2,100 at Sedo, and we’re not talking about the animal in the cat family. “Welcome to My Cougar – the online adult dating site where like-minded people chat, meet and fulfill their fantasies.”

CircleID: Mozilla and the National Science Foundation have announced a $2 million prize for ideas that decentralize the web; prizes will be available for both early-stage design concepts and fully-working prototypes. From the announcement: "To connect the unconnected and disconnected across the U.S., Mozilla today is accepting applications for the Wireless Innovation for a Networked Society (WINS) challenges. Sponsored by NSF, a total of $2 million in prize money is available for wireless solutions that get people online after disasters, or that connect communities lacking reliable Internet access."

To prize is available for U.S.-based entrants to one of the following two separate challenges:

— Off-the-Grid Internet Challenge: "When disasters like earthquakes and hurricanes strike, communications networks are among the first pieces of critical infrastructure to overload or fail. How can we leverage both the Internet's decentralized design and current wireless technology to keep people connected to each other — and vital messaging and mapping services — in the aftermath of a disaster?"

— Smart Community Networks Challenge: "Many communities across the U.S. lack reliable Internet access. Sometimes commercial providers don't supply affordable access; sometimes a particular community is too isolated; sometimes the speed and quality of access is too slow. How can we leverage existing infrastructure — physical or network — to provide high-quality wireless connectivity to communities in need?"

CircleID: "Boots becomes latest company to terminate new gTLD but other '.brands' go full steam ahead." Trevor Little reporting in World Trademark Review: "Pharmacy chain Boots has become the latest company to signal an intention to terminate a Registry Agreement (RA), this time for the '.boots' TLD. ... Others that have previously decided against proceeding with '.brand' applications including South Korean industrial conglomerate Doosan, publisher Guardian News & Media and cosmetics giant L'Oreal. ... While a negative development for the new gTLD programme, it should not be viewed as an indicator that '.brands' are losing their lustre — on the contrary, the rollout of branded spaces shows no sign of slowing."

Domain Shane: A comprehensive look at the final auction prices, closeouts and more from the auction list posted on June 23, 2017. 
If there is an asterisk (*) next to a price, it means that the name was at auction from a private seller (rather than an expiring name) and may have had a reserve.  I’m only showing where the price was when the auction ended, but the name may not have sold if a reserve was in place.

Domain Shane:
I didn’t realize that people still go bowling until the other day when I took my daughter. We decided to go for something to do during the middle of the day when the humidity and heat was out of control.
Yesterday we went again and bowled 2 games because we signed up for a free kids bowling all summer long. They offer 2 free games everyday for kids, and a discounted family pass for adults. The adult pass only cost $20 for the summer with the discount code. Here’s a tip if you’re interested: after you sign your kid up, you’ll be presented with the family pass option. If you click “no thanks”, they take you different sales screen and lower the price by 25%.
It seems like a ingenious marketing idea for bowling alley’s.  We still had to pay for the shoe rentals and  bought a drink. Both times we were bowling there was only one other lane being used so it’s not like people are knocking the doors down to bowl. With a business like a bowling alley it seems like anything you can do to get people in the door is a good idea. The lanes and balls just sit there not making money. It’s different than a business with a product that has a cost, you can’t just give those away.
My daughter bowls with the bumpers up and I probably should too, we both suck at bowling. Maybe by the end of the summer we’ll be pros. I don’t even hold the damn thing right, I sorta cradle it in my arm and launch it with a little english. It’s never a consistent throw, but it usually has a nice curve to it. I might try the ramps next time, I feel like I could line that thing up really well.

I Want My Name: A few hours ago my wife showed me the shirt above – on her phone. Two hours later, on my phone, the same shirt popped up as an Instagram ad.
I’m not against advertising, but this is going too far. We (me included) need to start moving to open social networks that don’t profit from our data.
