Frankly it amuses me to see some of the claims that Thought Convergence makes. Below are two I want to focus on very briefly. "TCI says that Westerdal told it he had a...

Jay Westerdal, the founder of Domaintools.com has officially been fired from Name Intelligence LLC (which was purchased some time back by Thought Convergence).

Some great domain names at some very fair reserves. My personaly favorite is the no reserve Announced.com. I love the possibility of this domain name and with a no reserve tag, it will sell. Good luck to all the bidders out there, if your not already registered had on over ......

This was an interesting morning. It would seem that both Google and Enom have dropped the ball so to speak. Early in the day all Google search results, when clicked, would advise you that the website you were trying to vew was unsafe. This was ammusing, but if you knew ......

Escrow.com has been a steady and safe mode of payment for me in the past. In my opinion they have only one flaw in their service, which is not securing the Domain from the seller. Today I recieved a phone call from Escrow that troubled me even more. I was due ......

It seems like each time Domaintools puts an auction together, its always last minute, poorly advertised, and down right dissapointing. There was no exception this time around. The list of domains for sale wasnt even finalized until days before the actual auction, giving no time to bring in potential...
