Yahoo's Domainapalooza! Domain Auction

[chris]

Yahoo are auctioning over 100 domains at Sedo, many of them they have owned since before 2000.

They're calling it "Domainapalooza” and it starts on November 14th and ends on 21st.

When you’re a company that’s been around as long as Yahoo, there are lots of fun things that you stumble across. This year, we found a huge list of domain names that the company has owned for quite some time.

As we discussed what to do with them, it became obvious that it was time to set them free…back into the wild of the Internet. Surely, creative people, businesses and entrepreneurs could come up with something great to do with them. They could even spark some brand new ideas or companies.

Tomorrow, we’re starting a week-long auction that includes well over a hundred premium domain names.

Crazy reserves. Of the dozen or so high quality names I think jockeys.com is the only one with a chance of selling.

Host.com is a good one as it is a HUGE money market.
