Being that I am a domain name addict, I had to check to see what was happening with haiti-related domain names given the recent tragedy…
I first checked HaitiEarthquake.com which was regsitered on 1/12/10 and redirects to a google page talking about donating money for relief…This is a GOOD use of the domain name.
HaitiEarthquakes.com is a parked site (which means they make money from serving ads) and was created on 1/13/10…hopefully this domain will be used with good intentions since it was just procured!
HaitiEarthquakeDisaster.com was created on 1/13/10 and looks to be taking paypal donations…..doesn’t say what organization it is and when you click on the paypal button to “donate” the paypal page shows “Gift Baskets N Gifts”….certainly suspect – BE CAREFUL!!
HaitiEarthquake.org was regsitered today 1/15/10 and appears to be parked at the moment…..
Makes you think; doesn’t it!
Have a great weekend……
