There's no doubt that trademarking a bunch of domains can be expensive and time consuming. However, there's also no doubt that trademarking your best domains can benefit you on many different levels.
As a lawyer, I tell clients that domains are often their company's most important asset. Shouldn't you try to protect that asset if you could? Getting a trademark filed is really cheap insurance.
I'm happy to file trademarks applications for my clients and take care of the whole process so my clients can focus on business. Can you do this yourself? Sure. This is a question of whether you want to spend the time to learn how to do the registrations and then spend the time doing them. Certainly check out the PTO site and make your best decision.
I think JD was right on target with his comments and I appreciate you guys posting my name in this threat.
