yes, I know... very true... I could be like gawker media:

http://www.gizmodo.com (mine = gadgetblog.com)
etc...
http://www.gawker.com
http://www.kotaku.com
http://www.wonkette.com/
http://www.defamer.com/
http://www.jalopnik.com/
http://www.screenhead.com/
http://www.gridskipper.com/
http://www.lifehacker.com/

but keep in mind, I want memorable, generic blog domains so that our bloggers who sign up for http://whatever.SexBlog.com won't have a problem remembering what the domain is. Keep in mind we are nopt only a blog publishing network (i.e. www.gawker.com & ww.weblogsinc.com (w/70+ blogs)), we are also a blog service provider (i.e. blogger.com, xanga.com, etc.) + a community.

As I stated earlier, needing the domains for development was equally as important as not letting the domain portfolio go to one of my competitors... competitors that did not even know we existed... until now. Wait'll I tell you who we were up against. We are now in an even better position than before because now "their" venture capital backers know we exist... and will be focused on us and how to roll us up into their network before we get too big. LOL. I'm not going to let that happen... we're going to grow without VC funding in the beginning.

500+ quality/premium Blog domains and our goal is to have at least 1 dedicated team-blogger on board, plus unlimited # of bloggers on each domain using our free custom blog software... perhaps we're creating our own blogosphere.

If anyone is interested in being part of our blog network and have not emailed me yet or want to email me again, do so now. Tell me a little bit about yourself, your expertise, if you'd like to be a team-blogger (what topics) and earn revenue-share, a sponsor, a service-provider partner, etc... email me.
