I'll be heading over to Los Angeles towards the end of next month for the ICANN meeting which is being held close to LAX.
I'm still finalising my travel details, but I expect to be over there for about a week or so.
Since Aer Lingus planes are like sardine cans I'll probably be flying with British Airways this time round. Virgin Atlantic would have been nice, but I don't think there's an easy way to book all the way through from Ireland and getting stranded somewhere if a connecting flight is late or whatever would really upset me.
If anyone is planning on going to ICANN in LA and wants to meetup for beers etc., let me know

domainrenewal-online.com have been spamming and scamming domain registrants on both sides of the Atlantic over the last couple of months.
They also started targetting other languages as reported by DomainesInfo
I mentioned this scam a while ago on the company blog
If you receive one of these emails ignore it.
If you want to take action you can contact the domain registrar with whom the domain is registered OR submit it to anyone of the blacklists.
This kind of scam really disgusts me!

I've got a bunch of domains.
Some of them are "live", while others are earmarked for various projects and ideas that will hopefully take shape at some point in the not too distant future.
There are two other categories of domains:
If anyone wants to buy any of the domains (apart from the .ie ones) let me know, as I may be open to offers if they're reasonable (no no no. Ten euros is not reasonable and yes I will laugh at you)

There are two other categories of domains:
- Impulse buys - it's amazing how attractive a domain looks at 3am when you've been drinking some nice Polish vodka!
- Orphan domains - these are the ones that I know could be great ideas / projects, but I'm not sure what to do with them
- buildrssfeeds.com - I picked that up on Afternic recently. It wasn't expensive and would be really handy for some kind of RSS related service. I probably won't develop it, but it was too good to let go
- corklanguageschool.com - I picked this one up ages ago. I can't remember why... I should really put up for sale on Afternic and see what happens ...
- irishcityguide.com - directory? guide? What would be a good way to make use of that domain?
- irishgolfreview.com - I don't know anything about golf! The domain seemed like a good idea at the time
- ispwatch.eu - I got this one to go with broadbandwatch.eu, but I've no immediate plans for it
- linuxquickguide.com - the name says it all, but what could you do with it?
- babble.ie - I was thinking of setting up a general forum, but I'm not sure if there's enough space in the Irish market.
- irishinternetguide.com - it seems catchy, but is it of any use? Would a site pick type site work? ie. picking a cool site every couple of days?
- modrewrite.co.uk - it was available. I grabbed it. Now what?
- technology.ie - What would work well for this domain? I've had loads of ideas, but I couldn't settle on one
