Did I mention I *HATE* cybersquatters?
AbiliTech.com (the domain I wanted the most) is already "for sale" by some Taiwanese fool.

I also tried AbilityIT.com and it's already occupied too by YET another cybersquatter. *growl*.

Cybersquatters are nothing but a *WASTE* of my precious time.

2. What's the scoop on "dot US" domains?
I know they're starting to make them available. Maybe you could get it as a ".us" domain?

Agreed it stinks when people park domains for the sole purpose of selling them for above the original price to park them.

4. ok.. I misread that
I read it as ALIBItech.com.

I was prepared to counsel you on your business name. Although, starting a business that provided alibis might be profitable come November. :)

5. I usually hunt down cybersquatters and kill them.
Then I send the death certificate to Network Solutions, always with the hope they will hand my fairly won name over to me, but they always sell it to another cybersquatter, or worse, one of my enemies.

I never learn.

(Just Kidding, yes, about the entire post here.)

6. Here are some that ARE available
AbiliTerrorist.com

AbiliTease.com

AbiliToodles.com

And then theres...

DisAbiliTech.com in case you're handicapped

Be creative. There are plenty of good domains left, as long as corporate image isn't that important to you. :)

7. AbilaTech.com is available
http://www.register.com/
It's not exactly right, but it does kind of roll off the tongue easily.:shrug:
