Twitter, the popular "what I'm up to now" and "here is another link for you to look at" social network site has picked up T.co, which it plans to use to wrap all URLs posted on its network by its users.

Bido.com, the domain auction site, is closing today May 5, 2010. That's according to a tweet on Twitter, from yesterday - May 4, 2010:

Bido is ceasing operation as of May 5, 2010. All transactions and accounts will be gracefully finalized and closed.

The company has been in existence since early 2008. Unfortunately, after changing it's auction model a hand full of times, it has not been successful in finding a winning formula for revenue growth.

There is some more information and some interesting comments at DomainNameWire.com's post on this.

WOW, Michael, that was hilarious. Well, at least ToyBots' CEO has sense of humor. Good for him.

I suppose it makes no difference if the domain name is hyphenated as long as there is a developed site behind it and it is producing good content, gaining and retaining visitor traffic.

I agree with what Ron Jackson had to say i the beginning of his post. Personally I have only 2 or 3 hyphenated domains. As a US domainer, for some reason, look down on the hyphenated domains, even though I know of some great sites whose domain names are hyphenated. I suppose it makes no difference if the domain name is hyphenated as long as there is a developed site behind it and it is producing good content, gaining and retaining visitor traffic.

Not only did they choose not to reinvent the wheel, but now they won't have to do any marketing or pushing a new product. reCaptcha is already on a huge number of web sites, as well as it is being used by large social sites. It is cheaper for them to acquire not only the technology but also the presence on all of those sites and the organic traffic they have.

Re: MG Explains Why ISPs Want To Lower The Definition Of Broadband

Alexandar Tzanov — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 15:35:44 -0000

If other services can't function properly except for their own then they are creating a monopoly. Although it will be hard to get the telcos for monopoly because they will still be "allowing" for third party services to access their network. There will be more success on the unfair practices and fair market front. Although line/network access rights and costs have been disputed, for years, between telcos, the FCC and third party provider. It might be too late if the telcos are successful with this. I fear it might take years to undo what could have easily been prevented/regulated by the FCC, or higher government agencies.

The free market is nice, but it needs to be protected. Some times that is done through regulating parts of it. To keep the US competitive with other countries other, that the FCC, government bodies might need to become involved as well.

This is part of the whole Net Neutrality issue. Consumers do not understand and know how many of the services they use and depend on depend on broadband, the internet and fast delivery of information. More needs to be done to make the net neutrality issue better know/understood by consumers and to encourage more participation on their part.

I guess more people will have to give up on watching youtube and actually go outside and do something productive and healthy.

I didn't say it was "breackign news" or that it was presented as "breaking news". TechCrunch isn't a "breaking news" site!! TechCrunch reviews and reports on events, businesses, services and sites.

It would be nice, though, to not see things that are stupid and OLD, posted on TC. Especialy about sites like peopleofwalmart.com, unless it has something to do with a grand plan, technology behind it or finances. When Michael posted about icanhascheezburger.com it was about the actual company and specualtiosn about their revenue - you know - things of substance.

I wouldn't have a problem with this post if I saw it on CrunchGear. I am use to seeing ones like this one published there!

I wish Techcrunch staff staid more up to date on what is happening on the Internet and didn't report on sites, and events like they are something new! For example google store and peopleofwalmart.com

When Michael was the main poster, he seem to manage staying more current to the Internet.

You guys should try tools like http://twitturly.com/ to keep up.

WOW, you guys are really behind. The store has been available for years. It just is tucked in the site, instead of being front and center. It makes sense when it isn't the main source of revenue.

But seriously, you guys and gals should spend 15 to 20 minutes exploring (corporate) sites. You will be amazed what you might find.

If you look hard enough you might even find the Google photo gallery.

lol, i get this problems once a week or so, and I have been experiencing them for the last couple of months. Usually I attribute them to lousy rendering of the page by the browser, with some help from the corporate firewall/filters. Usually hitting F5 coupe of times, to reload the age, resolves the rendering issues.
