Skirt.com – $100,000

September 21, 2009

A previously unreported 6 figured sale has just come to light – thanks to George Kirikos.  The domain Skirt.com sold recently for $100,000.  It was reported in this SEC filing by Morris Publishing Group LLC:  “During the second quarter of 2007, “we acquired the domain name for the Skirt! magazines’ Web site for $0.1 million.”  A great sale for a great domain!

New Domain Law Blog

September 21, 2009

One of the most complex parts of domaining is domain law, and it can be difficult to understand and keep up with it for the average lay person.

Fortunately, noted domain lawyer Zak Muscovitch has now stared a blog on his website.  I personally find it amazing that a lawyer, who is undoubtedly under a lot of time pressure, takes the time to blog about this important area of domaining.  Zak is known as Canada’s leading domain lawyer, and you may recall his name from our in depth interview with him about Canadian domain law.

Zak’s blog isn’t limited to Canadian law, indeed it provides a global view, for instance, talking about a recent domain decision by the Indian High Court, the Kentucky seizure of gambling related domain names, and Olympic trademark infringement.

Good luck Zak and I look forward to lots of interesting reading.
