Good Thursday morning to you!

It’s St. Patrick Day, and my gift to you is to SAVE GREEN when making domain investing and associated service purchases.

In addition, I have a special treat in addition to the domain auction list today.

Half the month is down, and we’re starting on the remainder. It’s HUMP day and that alone is more than enough to be happy about.

If you hadn’t had a chance to listen to Andrew Alleman’s podcast episode #75, Future Domain Opportunities, then I suggest to you take a listen to it.

Yesterday was so beautiful here in Austin.  I’m certain that SXSW attendees enjoyed the first part of the day.  As for the second part, it was precursor to what this summer will be like in Texas: H-E-L-L.

I broke a sweet yesterday and likely to break another today.  And that’s just walking to and from the office to my car.

Speaking of walking, as I left the office for lunch, I saw something that let’s me know Spring is here and Summer is fast approaching: The Texas Bluebonnet. They were so pretty I almost picked one, but then I thought about the legalities I’d have to deal with.

It ain’t worth it… I’m not going to mess with the bluebonnets or the State of Texas!

Wow… I’m totally shocked. It just now hit me that we didn’t have a thing planned to do over the weekend.

Honestly, I’m glad we didn’t have a thing to do with all of the traffic and nearly 400,000 people attending SXSW events throughout Austin. Let’s see, what did we do?

It’s bright and early for a Saturday morning.   President Obama made and appearance at the 30th Annual SXSW Kickoff, a private dinner and back into the air towards Washington before I had dessert.

Traffic this week has been horrendous here in Austin.  We struggle as it is from day to day, yet we think it’s a good idea to host an event for nearly 400,000 SXSW attendees.  I’ll wait until around this time next month to venture downtown.

It’s Friday! It’s Friday! And I’m still working harder than ever (just like you!).

If you get a moment today, then please do take time to read and review at Ali’s latest post entitled Domain Flipping: How to Flip Domains to the Service Industry.

Ali provides great insight for domain investors with the skills and chops to develop service-oriented websites using geo service domains.

We’re back today with 4L .net and .com domain auctions amongst a long list of keyword, phrases, geo and brandable domains.

No numeric domains, but my guess is that they’ll make more of an appearance in the coming days.

In domaining news, OnlineDomain.com posted February’s top 10 trending keywords in .net and .com registrations. Trending lists like this are interesting to say the least.
