    Most all encompassing domain extension

    I prefer .xyz myself. It's emerging as the most popular aftermarket new gTLD (so no concerns about the registry folding anytime soon), and it's probably one of the most (if not the most) generic extensions.

    Name the most successful domainers in the industry

    I'll go off-book a bit. Ali Zandi - Maybe not for longevity (is he still active?), but for how quickly he made a name for himself in the industry and started producing major sales. Swetha of DNgear - I actually count myself in the slightly more skeptical camp when it comes to her speed and...

    Is OMGGOOD.com a good domain?

    It's not bad, and $900 seems just about right as an asking price. Kind of a fun name that could be used for a wide variety of things. Of course I might be a tad biased, since I own OMGok/com.

    .CA Blue Cloud

    Happy to report my first ever .ca domain name sale: Blue/Cloud/ca Sold for $850 US on Afternic. I think I've held this one for about two years. It was a hand reg. Very encouraging for me, considering what a small number of .ca names I hold. Nice to see that strong two-word combos have a...

    CTC.ca now owned by Microsoft?

    Doubly unfortunate for Canadian Tire, since the CTC is also the home of the Ottawa Senators (Canadian Tire Centre).

    Is he a squatter?

    I see no evidence that this domain owner has attempted to directly profit from the trademark of this company. Of course it would be a different story if he reached out to them to offer the name...

    Your latest .ca Hand Registration and Why?

    Yeah exactly. It certainly makes sense that they were available to register. I like "scarce" as a potential brand, but I'm under no illusions that it's anything more than a hail Mary pass.

    SOLD Join.ca - Listed at Sedo for $2,800

    I'm waffling on it a lot as well. I like it, but I'm not sure that the existing end users are there to justify the purchase. It makes for a killer brand, but I suppose the use cases aren't as strong for "Join" as they are for a lot of other words that are more commercial in nature.

    SOLD Join.ca - Listed at Sedo for $2,800

    I still have a lot to learn in terms of .ca name valuation, but this seems like a decent investment price to me. Would be interested in hearing thoughts from others.
