“A Domain Name Is Born” But Never Grew Up; Reserved at Birth, Forgotten by Time

April 20, 2025 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

Money Careers section titled A Domain Name Is Born.

WEST PALM BEACH, FL - Nearly two decades ago, my local newspaper at the time, Newsday, ran a front-page story in its Money & Careers section titled “A Domain Name Is Born.” The article spotlighted a fascinating emerging trend: forward-thinking parents reserving web addresses for their newborns - sometimes before the child was even born. I snapped a photo of the front cover back in 2007, struck by how the digital world was starting to influence even baby names. I grabbed … [Read more...]

Scott Metro

PROSPECT, KY – It’s not often that a seller gets the opportunity to off-load the same portfolio twice, especially when the sales price is north of $2M, but that’s exactly what is happening with Clark Scott’s “Hello Earth” city site network and its computer software system as well as a U.S. federal trademark for “HELLO EARTH” – all assets of “Hello Earth LLC.” I recently connected with Clark where we discussed the long and interesting history of his unique network of city … [Read more...]

gTLD Madness: Five Years Later and Where Are We Now? T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Panel Debate

June 8, 2018 By John Colascione 4 Comments

NEW YORK - By the time I started visiting domain conferences in person, unfortunately, what I feel was the greatest domain conference of all time, Howard Neu and Rick Schwartz’s T.R.A.F.F.I.C., had seen its last days. I wish it weren’t so. I think the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conferences were the best respected domain conferences in history; I can only wish that Howard and Rick, for whatever reason, will team up again and bring it back one day, because everything else, in my opinion, … [Read more...]

In Wake of France Domain Theft, Geo .COM Name Space Owners Question Future?

May 1, 2018 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK - If you had not yet heard, the mega GEO domain “France.com” was recently ‘acquired’ by the European Country of France. Acquired can be a tricky word as the domain asset was, in this case, acquired through what I call an ‘unprecedented theft’ while readers commented that this event is likely the ‘biggest story in domaining during the last 20 years’, and I tend to agree; surprising there isn’t more Internet chatter on the subject. Coincidently, I’ve also noticed some … [Read more...]
