Avoiding “Domain Tasters” Update
Website Development February 27th, 2007Last week, I wrote a blog post about the practice of “domain tasting” and several ways that you can avoid having your domain name idea nabbed by the nefarious people that do this.
Self-proclaimed “geek” and lover of computers Dusty Reagan wrote in tonight to tell me about a domain research tool that he is developing that will allow you to search for domains while keeping your searches from prying eyes.
Leave to the geeks (and I only mean that in the most loving way since I’m also one myself) to see a problem and solve it themselves. Check out the new tool and try it out for your next search.

I might be being slightly paranoid but I actually do my domain name searches with one company, and register with another. Potentially anyone can make an interface that can test the availability of a domain, the question is… are they recording your attempts?
