I might sell the software suite on ebay or domain board now that I'm out of the dropcatch game and in development mode now.
Sounds like just the thing I need (to fuel my addiction) but that could be dangerous at the same time. You're right, they do start to look the same after a while. I had some names they grabbed for me and then I thought to myself: "Did I really want that domain? Did I actually backorder that name??" Sometimes I forget

I've had some good luck with Pool but I've also had some very frustrating encounters as well, can't say for sure which way I'm leaning yet.
