The Next BIG Thing Is 3D: Who Owns Best Domains? (Hint: Its not Me, Frank, Kevin Or Even Rick )
I sure blew this one.
But at least I’m not alone.
The next big thing is going to be 3D.
3D was the talk of the Consumers Electronic Show in Vegas in January.
3d Tv’s are already on sale and the World Cup was broadcast by Directv in 3D.
ESPN is launching its own 3D channel any day now on Directv.
Yup its going to be huge and I missed to boat completely.
However it doesn’t look like I’m alone.
Looking through the best 3D domains I could think of it doesn’t look like Frank, Kevin or even Rick locked up any of the best 3D domains or at least what I consider to be the best of the best.
I thought it would be interesting to take a look to see who owns the best of the 3D domains.
Lets start with the 5 star domain for the topic, 3D.com.
Its owned under privacy at Network Solutions.
The domain name was created all the way back in 1994.
The domain goes to a Net Sol, parked page so whoever owns it, isn’t making any money off of it, and it does get thousands of visitors a month according to Compete and Alexa.
A Waste.
3DTV.COM Is owned by an end user, Brad Beckerman of Beverly Hills, California
Its actually a pretty cool flash site you should check it out.
3DTELEVISION.COM and 3DGlasses.com are owned by an end user, Deep Vision 3D, of Hollywood, CA, although the 3dtelevision.com domain is not resolving properly for me the company sells 3DGlasses on the 2nd domain.
The domain, 3-DGLASSES.COM is owned by an end user, Theatric Support of Studio City, California
3DTVS.COM is registered to Jon Schultz of Blue String Ventures, Inc.
The domain, 3-dtv.com goes to a parked page and is under privacy.
Ted Amaradidis of Delray Beach Florida, owns 3-DMOVIES.COM and 3Dmovies.com and 3Dmovies.tv
3DTELEVISIONS.COM is owned by domainer, Gregg Ostrick of GNO, Inc.
3DSPORTS.COM is owned by our good friend Chad Folkening of Ecorp.
3DMOVIETHEATERS.COM is owned by Ralf Schumacher, who is another fellow I know pretty well.
3DTHEATERS.COM is owned by a Daniel Symmes of Woodland Hills, CA and is another domain not resolving properly.
The domain name, 3DADVERTISING.COM is owned by our good friend Stephen Douglas of Success Click.
The domain 3dprojectors.com is owned by Scott Bennett of Glasgow who is using it for a blog.
3DGAMES.COM is owned by another good friend and ICANN’s worst nightmare, George Kirikos.
3D.TV and 3-D.Tv are both owned by a Guy named Ben Geren.
(If you are not familiar with Mr. Geren He also owns some of the best possible .FM domains, including Rock.FM, HipHop.FM, Classical.FM, and Country.FM, ClassicRock.FM, and Oldies.FM just to name a few as well as some pretty good .TV Domains including, wireless.tv, channels.tv. concerts.tv and cinema.tv)
Congrats boys, you own part of the future and you all kicked my ass.

New Windows 8 Note-taking App
Just caught Go Daddy selling my 3DMammogram.org domain in one of there auctions without my consent. They blamed it on Sedo. Nice try. Go Daddy was caught shill bidding now they are caught selling domains in auctions without consent, Man I wish I had a good lawyer
@ DM, Would you log into Sedo and take a screenshot of the “owner” of the domain? This is what you do: You press Shift/Print Screen or Function button/Print Screen. Then email it to me. I’d like to compare, because my TabletHybrid was for sale on Afternic with a Domain For Sale link on DomainTools. Before you complain about it to Sedo, log in and take a screen shot where it says, “Learn more about the seller,” and email it to me.
After snapping the screenshot according to the directions, above, you can open Paint and paste it: go to Start in the bottom left. Start/Programs/Accessories/Paint, and press Control V, and save it as JPG.
Louise
It said Go Daddy Auctions not Sedo, Not very happy they set a start date and end date.
If it sells, GD will move it from your account – do you think this is an accident?
Can you chat with a Sedo rep, then save the conversation? Save the conversation to a text file. Tell Sedo you are the owner, that the domain is NOT for sale, and that the whole complaint is going to Lawrence Strickling of NTIA. Tell the Sedo rep GD pushed it to auction without your authorization, and that Sedo has to make a note of your complaint against GD.
Stop that auction.
Further, no more phone calls. The Big companies prefer phone calls, because there is no record.
This is how you save the conversation: Copy is Control C, then open Notepad in Accessories, the way I told you, above. Control V is paste.
Even if there is an option to email the conversation, save it first.
No more phone calls. Everything saved; screenshots, everything.
It wouldn’t hurt to contact Morgan Linton at DomainTheft.org, and tell him what is going on:

Louise
I sent a complaint to Domain Theft. This is no accident, I renewed the domain for another year. 2 days ago it was not in GD auction then I renew it and there it is 60 dollars start bid. Thats BS
Romancing the Second Screen – another dual screen app!
The Team Coco Tablet Sync App
@ dmpartners, It’s your word against godaddy – document everything! Keep a notebook by the phone, and take notes on every phone conversation. Get a last name or employee #, write down the date and time, and initial it. You and I are not MHB or Elliot Silver. We are just getting started, and don’t have a world-renowned blog. We must live by our wits.
Louise I have screen shots documents names everything when they shill bid against me in a fake back order just 4 months ago I contacted a lawyer with proof positive and the guy did not want the case. This deal I was going to take the screen shot but said forget it, Then I called GD and they deleted it during the call. So my post was for all domainers to watch your domains on Go Daddy keep looking them up to make sure they are not auctioning them off without consent,
Sorry folks -game over!

@ DM, It’s not too late for 3DMammogram.org. It is still listed for sale on GD auctions, Sedo, and DomainTools, the latter two, because they are partners. This is what you do:
Contact by email or chat each company to complain that you NEVER listed 3DMammogram.org for sale, and keep your records. For instance, you may email GD at abuse@godaddy.com.
Then you have to snailmail Lawrence Strickling at:

No matter how much criticism my portfolio has taken, how many barbs tossed my way, no matter where and when 3D/holo catch on, I MUCH prefer MY portfolio over anyone else’s! The future trend domainers inspire me; some top domainers – like MHB and Schwartz, not to mention, Douglas, Linton, Wood, Silver, Rosen and others in that group, and I am watching what they do, and choosing my own direction. Thank you, thank you, thank you . . .

Would you check your cloud, 3D, and “i” list on EmergingDomains, to see if they’re current? @ Giles, I know you sold several cloud domains . . . I am putting the final touches before I contact end users for Emerging domains. I made the Dev, 3D, and hologram categories richer by putting links to 3 portfolios under, “Dev,” and adding news to 3D and hologram . . . 2013 is my year to make $$, so please update your listings, if you want to grab on.

Dubbed, the “Yota Phone,” this dual screen smartphone with one side phone, the other side low battery usage eReader, has captivated the media, so I had to update DualScreenPhones.com! And it registered,
Yotaphone.com
so, it must be reading, theDomains!
Do you think these type of domains are still going to pick up value?
Apart from 3D cinema (that isn’t new at all) I haven’t seen too much noise around the whole 3D thing, maybe the timing isn’t right yet, or are they going to be a non lasting fad, like 3G domains in the past?
@ Jorgos, Lots of 3D announcements coming from CES this year!
Bendy Tablet
here is the final take on 3D at CES — http://www.theverge.com/2013/1/8/3852452/death-of-3d
The Verge dot come is the final take? Another 3d hater, Once 3d is fixed it will be back at CES dont worry
The bubble has finally popped:
theverge.com/2013/1/8/3852452/death-of-3d
The even bigger next big thing is 8K TV
Nice going, with one-of-a-kind 8Kdot tv! Though, it’s hard for the human eye to discern 8K on a small screen, when 4K is being shown in movie complexes . . . How do you like the BendyBook, above?
Does anyone have any ideas what Facebook’s big announcement is going to be?
I want to take a stab. Of course, taking a chance and finding the corresponding dot com is a fun investment!
So far, journalists have no clue. The announcement is by invitation, and sounds groundbreaking.
So, let me go on record, and take a long shot guess from abstract thinking from something I discovered doing research yesterday: Veveo.com. Facebook is going to buy, Veveo.
There aren’t any short domains left for this category. Here is the list of patents of Veveo – see if you can find one:
Veveo Intellectual Property
http://207.154.39.14/technology/personal-graphs
My stab at a guess of Facebook’s announcement involves Veveo, yet CNBC’s live blog site for the announcement has a statement that it doesn’t involve a company . . .
There don’t appear to be any short domains related to Veveo’s patents left!
