Simple domain names

Thursday, January 3rd, 2008

I am enamored with the single word domain names, and who purchases them, when they were purchased and how much some of those domains would sell for. I wish I was old enough during the time of the internet boom in order to take advantage of some of these domain names. Domains like www.cars.com, www.stove.com, www.chefs.com,www.cooking.com,www.books.com, www.cruise.com, etc. These names are extremely marketable and also can be very lucrative. As much as I like to cook and love to talk about food, I would love to start a blog at a domain name like www.chefs.com. I would love to share tips on new cooking trends, new cooking inventions, and new places to try and dine out.

When I am looking for different domains now I use various sites like www.digitalpoint.com or wwww.sitepoint.com, in hopes to find some other domain names that you can use for your business process. It is to the point now that if you’re looking to start your own business you should first check if the domain name you want is available for the company name. It is annoying if you can’t get a domain name that is either the same as your company name or at least related to your product.

Cocktail Recipes - How to make cocktails - Mixed Drinks

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

I’m a big fan of cocktails and mixed drinks, and lately I find myself visiting a new website I found on del.icio.us, it’s supercocktails.com .

The site apparently has the largest online collection of mixed drink recipes , but the things I love the most are the accurate searches you can make (for example, specify 3 ingredients and it searches a cocktail with all of them) and the user account lets you get a “favorite drink list” that you can print out and categorize, very convenient! I used to visit the webtender but supercocktails is quite better in many aspects (and the site seems to load much faster) It also features a custom firefox (and IE7) search engine with which you can search cocktails directly from your browser.

The site also lets you upload your own mixed drinks recipes, and I’ve uploaded quite a few already, they usually get approved/rejected 3-4 days after submission Enjoy!
