The point is, that because they apparently wouldn't even bother to make a note of the expiration date they how have to spend however many hundreds ot thousands to get back what they could have renwed for eight bucks. It's dumb to waste moeny, even if you're rich.

I checked the WhoIs, and it says that GoDaddy now owns the .com for another year. It was been over a week since the domain expired, and the site still says the owner has a chance to renew. In buying the backorder though, I did notice that the .com is no longer available for anyone else to backorder. That got my hopes up a little bit, but I still think this is a high price domain. I doubt I will get it without a fight, or a ton of money. Well, like a sap, I purchased the backorder for the .com I wanted on GoDaddy.com.

There is still a _lot_ of that kind of stuff floating around the .Net ... proof that you don't have to be able to write code to sell a product ... MyBlogLog a great example where Shoemoney looked and saw it was "dropping" the ID numbers of visitors on his sites, so anyone with a MBL widget gets the ID of anyone who visits. He posted some "name" IDs and they banned him ... to try to cover up their own shabby security breach. Anyway, one year or 10, I would set a reminder for all my domains ... you'll find that by 2019 your memory may not be what it is today. Memory is the second thing to go as you age. @==>> Martin: That's agood question. I'll do some rsearch for us all on that. There is the published expiraion date and then there is some period of time after that where the former owner can redeem (for a significant extra charge) .... but no one else can grab the domain ... and then the domain is open for anyone. @==>> Tyler: That’s interesting about the HoTMaiL password crack … didn’t know that.
