Just renew it for 100 years with NetSol and hope you don't get a life sentence.

ssl.us or resell.us, not sure which to be quite honest.

Though makefile.com is probably my personal favorite, just because it is a little more me.

I've seen some impressive ones so far.... I quiet like DVDfile.com which is an extreamly massive dvd site ranking 4th in google dvd is probably one the top searched for names on the net... So I registered BDfile.com bd (blu-ray disc) is going to be the next optical disc (hopefully replacing dvd)... Well I guess I just have to wait and see how it goes... It might be my most valuble domain in afew years... Tri star distributors have already said there releasing there movies in BD in 2005 and the first bd player has been released by sony the bds can fit up to 50GB on a single disc meaning high quality and high definition movies for HDTV which is slowing gaining popularity.

3 letter domains are easy to remember, especially ones that are all letters. There aren't tons out there left for registraion either, most are held by domain brokers as soon as they expire. I have been trying to get my hands on wwm.com for years, they registered it a while after I registered mine back in 94. I never thought it would be that big of a deal back then, LOL. Boy if I only knew I would have have snatched up every deviation I could of it.

Exactly Paul!

Although a few years ago they merged with tsb therefore now being lloydstsb.

You hear a lot of stories about big companies reclaiming domains and I am amazed they didn't in this case.
Still, I don't mind at all if they don't.

I do not know where i was while those guys are registering these domains. Probably all is because internet had spread outside usa after all gone

My favorites are:

look4work.com
filmshoot.com
because they are 'catchy'

tvsho.ws
thene.ws
carfoc.us
lawfoc.us
photofoc.us
because they spell complete words.

I tried to register toron.to the week that dot-to's were released, but thought $100 USD was too much at the time. Duh!

Postmaster
06-21-2004, 05:25 AM
look4work.com is an exelent domain!!!! Hold on to that one.

linux-tech
06-25-2004, 05:19 PM
cherished? I have like 20 of 'em right now, I'd say probably
wolfstream.net (currently under construction, my homepage) because it's been around with me the longest.
Second to that would be the latest addition bofh.us (yeah, it's a .us, the others were taken damnit :P)
None of mine are extremely valuable, unless you count sentimental stuff :P

itincome.com... I am not doing anything with this domain so if anyone wants to buy it let me know...

I also own veggys.com :) not doing anything with it either...

BigBison
06-27-2004, 10:00 PM
steamboat.com

I miss owning that one. It was better for all for me to sell it to the ski resort, however. It'll be a couple more years before I'm even allowed to say. In terms of profit percentage vs. what I paid for it, I'll never look so good nor do so well again on any investment. I was its second owner when I bought it in '94 for $50. Funny thing was, in retrospect, my attempts to get him down to $35! The Internet should be free! :)

I intend to pass osteoporosis.org on to my family when I'm gone. Won't ever sell it. 'dictionaryword'.org still comes up first in searches.

I used to own ratester.com I wish I still owned it... sold it off for $20

must be nuts

That would have been my favorite

greyduk
06-30-2004, 03:44 PM
greyduk.com
terseffects.com
tersify.com

One I have been thinking about trying to sell is www.lechba.com I did it for a band that ended up bailing on me and nevre paid me for the design, hosting, or domain name, so it's mine! It means "the promised" in Arabic, or so I'm told, if that means anything to anyone let me know! :D

Then for a friend I got morgasco.com. Kinda has an easy to remember ring to it.

my most cherished would be tvlwebsolutions.com cuz it was originally my (at the time) boyfriend and i's business... but that faded away when he started working for trend micro & didn't have time for that anymore... or for me.. lol and as far as cool ones go... um.. twistedpretties.com cuz that just sounds neat & the initials are TP! LOL and i also own mylittleishop.com & various other domain names. wicked-gear.com, wickedpublicity.com, capitalcarcare.com, helpcandy.com, otsikheta.com, glamdolly.com, paradoxenterprises.com, jrockringtones.com, bewitchingmen.com, fantorium.com, glamageddon.com, candysfamily.com, enternethost.com, rainbowpixies.com, blueseclusion.net, cesnacredit.com, etc...

some of those i can and will sell if you're interested. :) i'm in the process of negotiating a deal for wicked-gear.com. :) most of the others are up for grabs, though. cuz i'm not doing anything with 'em.

best wishes,
