| The Next Big Domain Auction |
| Published: July 26, 2007, 10:04 pm |
| Tags: Main Page, Icann |
| Name Intelligence is holding an auction next month in conjunction with its Domain Roundtable conference. They just published their first list of names that will go on the auction block. If I were buying, I'd go for autobiography.com (no. 21 on the list). What a terrific name for an online site. To my way of thinking, the potential to build a |

| Inside my head, I've always seen domain name registrations as clouds. I took some time earlier this week to illustrate these name clouds. You can see them in today's post on Name Brief. They use pretty colors. |

| ICANN NomComm: Leave It Alone |
| Published: July 24, 2007, 1:48 pm |
| Tags: Main Page, Icann |
| If there's one part of ICANN that is working well, it's the Nominating Committee. It's time for the NomComm's periodic review though, but my input is rather simple: leave it alone. It's working. |

| Oooops.... Mistake. |

| Tags: Main Page, Ambulance |
| I like to think that I'm good at my job - I concentrate on what I'm doing, I try to help people and I try not to make any mistakes. Yesterday I made a big mistake - but it made me feel like I'd just received a big birthday present. I turned up at work ready for my 14:30 start in time to go across the road and get my 'dinner' (a half-pound of |

| Left At Home |

| First off a private message - Thanks Darren, the gift is very much appreciated, you shouldn't have. I've written a bit about not wanting to leave people who I am called to at home, but there are times when for one reason or another patients do get left behind.

It was drawn to my attention on one of the ambulance forums, partly because we |

| One litre of Red Bull and two litres of Coke Cola and I still don't feel up to facing the day. I think I have caffeine tolerance. Once more my job gave me two calls that are in contrast to one another, both involving children. The first was an eight year old boy who'd fallen over and taken a small chunk out of himself. Nothing too serious and |
