Front Runners, the Coyote’s After You There’s a good explanation of the annoyances attached to the practice of domain tasting and front running at Jay Westerdal’s blog at DomainTools.com.
It’s pretty bad ‘not knowing’ if you’ve been gazumped by a front runner and/or a taster or if it’s a coincidence. I take it for granted that al...

Some Good Advice Frank Schilling published a message he received from a relatively new domainer which gives some good insight into how the domain space scales.
