Amazon Gets Ready for Holiday Season with Slew of New Domains, Customer Video Reviews Now Live & More
We regularly post recently registered domain names as they hit WHOIS databases or as they are transfered to new name servers.
The first part of November, as the holiday season approaches, has been a busy time at Amazon.com. What follows are a number of new domains that were registered by MarkMonitor, a company that often registers and "holds domains" until they are taken over by the client or moved to a various name server. They are also involved, as the name suggests, in the trademark monitoring businsss.
Here's a sample of what MarkMonitor has been registering in the past few days and placing either on emarkmonitor.com or MarkMonitor.com servers. Our focus is Amazon.com.
Also, several older Google domains moving from Markmonitor name servers to Google name servers and one new Yahoo domain.
+ VerizonYahooDSL.com
Registered on November 10, 2007. Site is not live.
Note: Most of these Amazon Domains were registered in the past few days to Amazon Technologies in Reno, NV. Reno. This appears to be the location where Amazon.com intellectual property is handled. For example, this trademark app for UNBOX uses Reno, NV. as the contact address.
+ AmazonSearches.com
Registered on November 1, 2007. The site is not live.
+ amazon-video-review.com
+ amazon-video-reviews.com
Note, you can now find Amazon Video Reviews on the pages of many Amazon items. Example. According to Mashable they have just gone live. This domain was registered for two years on November 1, 2007.

Recently I have found myself cooing over visualisation maps (and heat maps) of health and well being resources. The content rich data is overlayed with mapping technologies, and some interesting themes and patterns are emerging.
A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?
Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.
What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?
