Tweet.me Sells for $11,505

Tweet.me Sells for $11,505

Twitter related .me domain names sells for five figures.

The latest premium .me domain name auction is coming to an end, and Tweet.me looks to be the winner at $11,505. I can see this being used for a Twitter service, but I’m a bit concerned regarding all of the services popping up that use variants of Twitter and Tweet in their names: could Twitter ever come following them for trademark infringement?

Lease.me sold for $7,605 with 139 bids and Massage.me sold for $6,005 with 32 bids. Other sales included:

Name/Price/Bids

preview.me $2,605 52

It appears that at least one domain name in the latest auction was sold at a previous auction, so perhaps it was never paid for.

The next premium .me domain name auction takes place on NameJet June 5.
