Yes, great name but I have another….ExpressYourSelf.TV
I currently have a landing page but had the idea to contact “Madonna’s” publicist. My thought was that Madonna could launch this site sing her famous record song EXPRESS YOURSELF (clean version) then pass the mic to Miley Cyrus thus amassing a group of followers from tweens to teens to etc…….any thoughts for development?

Public Companies have a hard time moving fast enough to enhance their undervalued assets.

I’ve just been retained to divest a great technology domain for end user development. Please contact if interested.

Rob is thinking right. I’d have said the same thing first, he just beat me to it. Rob has too much time on his hands! I hope he’s going to Domainfest so I can arm wrestle him.

LinkedIn should buy it for $2 mil

Anyone think it’s worth that much?

Wow I would have to take a couple of weeks off just to come up with a good business plan. I can see limitless possibilities with this name, it’s truly fantastic. I wonder if they consider a sale?

Rob’s right. Sell it to LinkedIn.

Then take the money, and Re-Invest it in Sun Microsystems on that project that they don’t have to ask the public what to do on.

A person cannot kill linked in with this domain, Tim.

Maybe a company backed by $10,000,000+ towards this project could get a small share of that market to start with but still with no guarantees… Developing a successful business isn’t all that simple and isn’t done overnight.

I would stay away from all social network type projects as there is just too many of them as is.

Seeing that Sun owns it, I am not expecting much. probably a large Java app that crashes my browser!

This is an interesting idea for a service… I am sure many people thing domain names are underutilized, and you have some form of crowdsourcing site which connects domain name owners with idea makers… who knows?!

Network.com domain name would be great for a website like LinkedIn.com for sure (or set it up as a combo site between YouTube and LinkedIn with video / chat futures).

Linked in should buy it. No brainer.

Maybe Rick Schwartz can expand on his domain conferences from TRAFFIC to NETWORK.

I totally agree with you Tim also this would make a great site to compete with Linkedin also a great name for a social network!

There are thousands of generic domains that large corps own that sit and do nothing its a real shame as if developed or sold these could be turned into great digital assets.

Again here is another issue where people dont know the true value of a domain name and the power it holds.
