It's hard to start off a Monday morning post without mentioning the Superbowl. I caught most of the game in between doing other things around the house, and it was the kind of Superbowl I like - not a blowout game. It's hard to pay attention to a Superbowl game when one team is severely ahead of the other before the first half. Even though the Ravens did have a good lead by the first half (22-6), they were the overall underdogs and San Francisco still had a chance to get back in the game. The game was decided in the final minutes, which is the way it should be, the Ravens holding on for the win 34-31.
The Godaddy kissing commercial did not seem to be very popular among the viewers, with polls showing it as the worst Superbowl ad of the night. Personally I found it interesting and a little disturbing. The .co commercial they ran was much better. I doubt the kissing commercial will create more business immediately, but it did get people talking about Godaddy, which must be worth something. Six months or a year down the road when someone is looking for a domain or hosting, they might see the Godaddy name again and at least it will be familiar to them. Maybe Godaddy just prefers to run shocking commercials rather than traditional ones. From looking at various tweets since then, it seems many people still don't know what Godaddy does, even after they saw the ad.
Now back to .ca business...
The January 30 TBR did not have many domains that were grabbed. A total of 135 domains were taken, when the usual number is somewhere around 200. Still, there were a few decent names on the list. I didn't put in for anything myself this week.
As for reported .ca domain sales, there were two listed in the past week's DNJournal report. TheBar.ca was the top .ca sale and made #17 on the country code list. Playit.ca also sold, and the prices for both are listed below.
thebar.ca - $3,999 - sold at Sedo
playit.ca - $1,000 - sold at Sedo
I couldn't find any info on the playit.ca sale, and the domain is still parked at Sedo. Perhaps it will be used for some sort of gaming, music or video site. As for thebar.ca, my first thought was that it was bought by someone in the alcohol/pub business, or something to do with Law (e.g.: the bar exam). Seems like my first instinct was correct, as the registered owner is now Diageo Canada Inc. Diageo is a manufacturer and distributor of alcoholic beverages. They appear to be a large company and may use the domain in a Canadian advertising campaign (at least that's my guess).
Below is the full list of TBR results. Thanks to Sibername for providing the info. I've bolded some of the better quality and more interesting names in the list.
