Domain names

One quick thing: I mentioned a program called eePire in the column without saying where to get it. You can find it on NR4’s site: /www.nr4.com/www/eepire_expired_domain_finder.htm.

It’s not the most intuitive piece of software, but it works. You can select pre-made list of words (it comes with several, including “All two-letter”), or choose “Generate names” in which you give it some letters to work with.

I like the “Full Word List,” which looks for so-called “dictionary domains” — domain names that are also real words, e.g., television.com.
