 | Forbes.com : Flipping for Domains!
A nice write up via Forbes.com on domain names. Ron Jackson, Adam Dicker and Jeremiah Johnson of Sedo are included in the article.

A year or two ago, my wife tried to convince me to get a vinyl wall decal for our family room. I thought she was crazy; what the hell was a vinyl wall decal? In fact, she was just a year or two ahead of the trend.
Vinyl wall art is gaining popularity and I think it will hit REAL big in the U.S., and other countries, quite soon.

| DNS Cache Poisoning: Is Your Domain Income Safe?
Via Tia Wood’s blog:
I posted a thread a couple weeks ago about a DNS security hole which received no response from domainers. Perhaps I should have explained that it totally disables your ability to earn revenue from affiliates and parking programs, if effected.
