Morning Whale Watch

Posted by EM@KING.NET

During this two-hour whale watch, the Teralani searches for the Pacific humpback whale. Each winter, the Pacific humpback whale migrates from Alaska to the waters off the coast of Maui. These "gentle giants" are one of Maui's most prized visitors with their spectacular breaching and tail slapping. Throughout whale season (December 15 - April 15), the Teralani departs each day from Kaanapali for a daily excursion. A marine naturalist is onboard to offer insights and education on the humpback whale. ...

Attorney's Advice - No Charge

Posted by Anonymous On 1/30/2008 07:11:00 PM 0 comments
I normally don't forward messages received from email but this one is a practical way to protect your identity just in case someone stole your wallet. By the way, don't forget to share this to your family and friends.

ATTORNEY'S ADVICE - NO CHARGE Read this and make a copy for your files in case you need to refer to it someday. Maybe we should all take some of his advice! A corporate Attorney sent the following out to the employees in his company.

1.. Do not sign the back of your credit cards. Instead, put "PHOTO ID REQUIRED."

2.. When you are writing checks to pay on your credit card Accounts, DO NOT put the complete accou nt number on the "For" line. Instead, just put the last four numbers The credit card company knows the rest of the number, and anyone who might be handling your check as it passes through all the check processing channels won't have access to it.

3.. Put your work phone # on your checks instead of your home Phone. If you have a PO Box use that instead of your home address. If you do not have a PO Box, use your work address. Never have your SS# printed on your checks. (DUH!) You can add it if it is necessary. But if you have it printed, anyone can get it.

4.. Place the contents of your wallet on a photocopy machine. Copy both sides of each license, credit card, etc. You will know what you had in your wallet and all of the account numbers and phone numbers to call to cancel. Keep the photocopy in a safe place. I also carry a photocopy of my passport when I travel either here or abroad. We've all heard horror stories about fraud that's committed on us in stealing a name, address, Social Security number, credit cards.

Unfortunately, I, an attorney, have firsthand knowledge because my wallet was stolen last month. Within a week, the thieve(s) ordered an expensive monthly cell phone package, applied for a VISA credit card, had a credit line approved to buy a Gateway computer, received a PIN number from DMV to change my driving record information online, and more. But here's some critical information to limit the damage in case this happens to you or someone you know:

5.. We have been told we should cancel our credit cards immediately. But the key is having the toll free numbers and your card numbers handy so you know whom to call. Keep those where you can find them.

6.. File a police report immediately in the jurisdiction where your credit cards, etc., were stolen. This proves to credit providers you were diligent, and this is a first step toward an investigation (if there ever is one) But here's what is perhaps most important of all: (I never even thought to do this.)

7.. Call the 3 national credit reporting organizations immediately to place a fraud alert on your name and also call the Social Security fraud line number. I had never heard of doing that until advised by a bank that called to tell me an application for credit was made over the internet in my name. The alert means any company that checks your credit knows your information was stolen, and they have to contact you by phone to authorize new credit.

By the time I was advised to do this, almost two weeks after the theft, all the damage had been done. There are records of all the credit checks initiated by the thieves' purchases, none of which I knew about before placing the alert. Since then, no additional damage has been done, and the thieves threw my wallet a way this weekend (someone turned it in). It seems to have stopped them dead in their tracks.

Now, here are the numbers you always need to contact about your wallet, etc., has been stolen:

1.) Equifax: 800-525-6285
2.) Experian (formerly TRW): 888-397-3742
3.) TransUnion : 800-680 - 7289
4.) Social Security Administration (fraud line): 800-269-0271

We pass along jokes on the Internet; we pass along just about everything. If you are willing to pass this information along, it could really help someone that you care about.

The first known 100+ .TV registered domains

Posted by Anonymous On 1/28/2008 12:16:00 AM 0 comments
I continue to do my research covering the first 100+ registered domain names for .TV extension. This is just a preview of what you should see once I complete my research.

Before you continue reading this topic, you might be interested the first 2 articles:

2. Oldest .ORG .EDU and .NET registered domain names http://emil.king.net/2008/01/oldest-org-edu-and-net-domain-names.html

Here's how to read the document:
.TV domain name - Registered by - New or Same Owner - Status

I'm still sorting out the remaining whois information of the first 100+ .TV domain names.

I will update this article as soon as I complete the research.

iReport.com SOLD for $750,000

Posted by Anonymous On 1/20/2008 12:49:00 AM 0 comments
I'm reading Rick Schwartz blog today and found out his sale for iReport.com to CNN and got some interesting thought to share with you.

The domain name iReport.com sold for $750,000.
$750k is a stepping stone. What it does is take what we do from theory to reality. When we look back at this sale in 10 years, people will say it was cheap and should have been sold for 10x that number. It's a stepping stone because sometime soon it will be unusual for any good domain to sell for under 7 figures. Then 8 figures. We are entering the period of time where we will see some significant domain sales.

Domain Appraisal is worthless according to Traffic founder Rick Schwartz:
If domainers want to be FOOLS and keep selling for "X", I will keep saying that domainers are leaving a FORTUNE on the table and don’t understand the anatomy of a great domain name. Maybe this will blow the lid off all the appraisals services. They are ALL WORTHLESS. Absolutely worthless. Not a single one has a clue. Not a one and SCAM is usually the first thing that comes to mind when I read a worthless appraisal that somebody actually paid for.

Domain Industry is a stable business.
During this slow down or recession, it will be the DOMAIN INDUSTRY that is the shining light on the hill. A place where great fortunes can and will be made. Times like this fuel emerging growth and we are more than emerging. We are busting out when everyone else is bailing out. We are positioned very well and this rocky financial environment we are in will benefit the domain industry more than any of us could do alone or collectively.

New home for EMIL.KING.NET

Posted by Anonymous On 1/20/2008 12:12:00 AM 1 comments
Hello to everyone,

This is to inform you that we have a new home, new mailing list, new template and; neat tools to keep you posted and interact with fellow entrepreneurs.

This website (blog) is now powered by blogger.com courtesy by google. The main reason of moving from dedicated hosting to google hosting service is to eliminate server administration on my long list of daily routine. Without server administration, I will be able to allocate my time to manage our projects, advertising and marketing services, buying more domains, be able to respond on some emails on a timely manner, etc.

Transitioning documents, this will be a slow process as I intend to re-upload only 3 months old articles useful to some of you. For the mean time, please peruse the website and don't hesitate to let me know if you have any good feedback (^_^).

Just in case you want to see our old website, it is right here:

Cheers for now,

Investing in .TV domain name (Part2/2)

Posted by Anonymous On 1/20/2008 12:04:00 AM 0 comments

This is the 2nd part of Investing in .TV Domain Name article. If you haven't read the 1st part yet, I highly recommend that you read it first so you can see the potential value of .TV domain extension.

I will introduce some tools that you can use for your .TV domain names if you don't have the time to develop it. The solution I will discuss here is just another way to maximize the revenue of your .TV portfolio.

Use a FREE service to make money for your .TV portfolio.

Tool #1 Magnify.net. The service is FREE and easy to customize. We have some GEO .TV domain names that are using Magnify.net to share, upload and watch video/photos. For some live .TV websites, see examples below:

  • http://www.belgium.tv/ - this automatically search the internet using the keyword(s) that I've assigned during setup. You can schedule the search every 3 days or 5 days or 7 days.
  • http://www.jersey.tv/ - similar approach with Belgium.TV but this search more cities in New Jersey and New York. So the content is huge.
  • http://www.fairfax.tv/ - is basically concentrated in Fairfax, Virginia to support our local community to upload and watch local video found in many video hosting services.

Not only for GEO .TV domain names, here are some examples that I used Magnify.net service:

To get your own Video Social Networking tool, go check it out http://www.magnify.net/.

Tool #2 http://www.mogulus.com/. This is my favorite tool for my .TV domain. I currently use this for http://www.station.tv/ to broadcast my own live music.

Did I mention that these services are free to use? If I havent, yes they are free to use.

Tool #3 http://www.justin.tv/. Yes this is broadcasting service now, check out the how to broadcasting guide to start your own.

Tool #4 Mobile Video services such as kyte.tv, qik.com and flixwagon.com

Thanks to shocko at namepros for introducing this service. See this in action, visit www.FairfaxCity.com website or www.Cityware.com Travel Resource.

HOW YOU CAN MAKE MONEY USING THESE TOOLS?

I can use my adsense code to show ads relevant to my video website. For Magnify.net, this is a shared profit ads though you can use other markerting approach to maximize your revenue. For example in http://www.michigan.tv/ website, I've used adsense and linkshare affiliate to provide ads around the video. I can also accept direct ad space from local customers, we can put this to the header, footer, side and middle area of the website.

Using Mogulus tool is very enjoying, easy to deploy and it's a complete studio solution. I can mix music video (as shown in http://www.station.tv/) of my own, using Youtube search results or allow other producer to broadcast with our http://www.station.tv/ broadcast. Sounds good ha! Well, take a peek at http://www.station.tv/ and enjoy our music. If you would like to hear other music, just drop as a note.

Added to adsense, I can use the ticker ad to show advertisement accepting monthly recurring payment to show their website to my avid listener. This is through Internet no boundaries, wide audiences.

Well, that's for now. I hope this help you follow your dream in media, entertainment or other related broadcasting business.

Investing in .TV domain name (Part1/2)

Posted by Anonymous On 1/19/2008 11:48:00 PM 0 comments
If you missed the .COM domain name business in the mid 1995's or early 2000's, well it's not too late to join this 2 billion dollar industry as reported in Fox News (The Domain Name Business is Real). Though registering a good .COM or .NET .ORG domain name extension is now a challenge. Most terms, words, keywords or street language in Webster Dictionary are all gone, probably own by individuals or in domain name business.



Let me show you how you can join this business with starting $8 to $100 dollar capital.

I worked in Information Technology field as Manager/Consultant by day and domainer by night. So when I try to register a domain name, it something to do with Information Technology, Networking, Security, Helpdesk Operations and other IT related keywords. This is where I start building my own portfolio, from 1 domain name in 1999 to approximately 1300 domain names this year; and hoping to own 10,000+ domain name before ending year 2015. For some readers, my forecast of owning 10,000+ domain names by 2015 is impossible to achieve because of growing competitions from fellow domainer, company, business bully (that use reverse hijacking to claim a domain name) but some will agree that it is possible to accomplish this task.



HOW TO?



When I started in Domain Name business, I figured that I'm already one step behind so I decided to invest in other extension such .CN .IN and .TV. Why these domain extension you ask? Well, simply .IN for india and .CN for chinese, their population counts as the most prospected Internet users in years to come. And .TV is a generic extension that everybody knows, great opportunity to build your own business in media or entertainment sector. For this article, I will show .TV statistic that was sold this year (2007) as reported in different forum e.g. NP, DNF and DS.



Reminder: If the assumed value is incorrect, please let me know so I can correct it or post your comment below. And just like other blogger/webmaster, our disclamer that this article is only use to give you our opinion based on input from different forums members. Please use this article at your own risk. LOL.

The graph deficted below is based on reported sales in Namepros, DNF and Domain State forums.
