.ME of course

During the routine check on bedo.com, which was recent.ly sold at Search Engine for Domain Offers (a.k.a. SEDO), it was noticed that it is still down, already for a while, waiting for its big day. Sometimes, big investments end up in nowhere.

Never mind that, recent.ly SEDO also sold two “me”-tagged domains:

aroundme.com (US$ 4,600)
playme.ca (US$ 700)

In the [...]

.Travel fans have posted a funny ad “How Internet Savvy Are We?” on YouTube:

Nice video indeed, but .travel is just too long to type and people hate long URLs (for details read our past marketing study).

One of the best shoe designers Ecco has launched a massive advertising campaign: MY WORLD. MY STYLE. MY ECCO.

Funny jingle it could be: Bedo.com was sold on Sedo.com for handsome $45,000:

Sedo is not particular.ly interested in protecting all Sedo.tlds, which is a right decision probably. It managed to secure Sedo.info and Sedo.biz but missed Sedo.net and Sedo.org. It runs a mobile version on Sedo.mobi, keeps bunch of country sites like Sedo.de and Sedo.jp…
