Yup, get a new .com (or .net/org) gTLD domain name for $0.99 today only – use the coupon code BUY99COM when you check out at GoDaddy. Click the image / link above… no, I don’t get any commission for these coupon deals from GoDaddy. Just wanna share with any IT / domainer / entrepreneur types that read our content here.
It may or may not work for renewals as well; I used it for a new .com registration. A contact mentioned that it did not work for a .ca renewal. That’s pretty much expected since the .ca domain space is managed by CIRA with a completely different set of pricing, registration rules, etc.
This is cool news and one of the next bleeding edge apps I will definitely install on my mobiles. Waze is a crowd-sourced mobile app that uses information from mobile users to provide real-time mapping and traffic situation information.
It’ll be going on my HTC Touch (Vogue) with Windows Mobile 6.5 and I hope to get Canada represented on the Waze community… plenty of traffic and mapping challenges for those of us in Montreal!
Here’s a cool demo they did at DemoFall09 yesterday:
So what is this? Basically free navigation with crowdsourced information that uploads your mobile activity (motion, speed, etc) along with your GPS receiver … basically showing other users about slowdowns, radar traps, accidents, etc.
Impressive tech of the day in the new world of mashups, location based services and user generated contents.
A bit less than a year ago, I wrote about a limited time promotion where GoDaddy was offering .com domain name registrations for $0.99 … that offer is long over, but if you go visit that old article you can use that link to get .info domains for just $0.89 with no pesky coupon required.
I personally love .info domains – especially for a buck; is there any better possible investment? There are still many many .info domain names available, and registering them for less than $1 is a no-brainer.
I came across a pretty interesting auction on eBay for an established human resources social network called HRMtoday.com ; you can see more details in the Flash widget below, but it’s a well priced (about USD $1500 as I write this) investment if you have a bit of passion for running an HR type site.
Granted, the deal seems like a classic case of website / domain flipping, but the product is definitely there in this particular offer. The seller mentions the site has over 1000 members and 3500 blog posts. I visited the site (very briefly) and it’s very nicely done.
Anything under $5K would be a real bargain to anyone with a bit of knowledge in the human resources area, and interested in possibly starting their own online business…
Short and sweet:
