Reglike Turns Two

Reglike hit the two year milestone last month.

I was scrolling through Reglike’s archives yesterday when I noticed that the monthly archives list in the left column was getting rather long. 25 months long, in fact. March marked Reglike’s second anniversary of bringing you domain name news.

A lot has happened in the domain name world since I first got started regarding a decade ago. Much of this activity has occurred in the past two years. Since March 2005 we’ve seen a host of fresh portfolio buyout firms with $100M bankrolls enter the market. We’ve seen over a dozen domain name parking firms join (and leave) the game. We’ve seen big sales like Vodka.com for $3M and we’ve experienced $5M domain name auctions. Just recently we experienced the first implosion of an ICANN accredited-registrar. The mainstream media started to pick up on domain names recently. Books are being written regarding the industry. Thousands of people are waking up to the value of virtual real estate.

So what’s next? 936 articles later (make that 937), Reglike continues to bring the latest news to everyone involved in the domain name industry: investors, lawyers, domain owners, service providers, the media. Reglike will continue to tell it how it is. No fluff. Not just the good news, but the bad news as well. (But hopefully more of the former.)

Thanks for your continued support.
