		<description>Thanks for the list, Andrew. 

You might want to add NetShops; they have a great biz model and are always buyers for new markets they want to enter.

I sold them one of mine a few months ago for that purpose.</description>

		<description>Hey nice job,

There is a small operation out of portland, ore called  OreNet Marketing . They have almost 1,200 domains specializing in the sports realm.   They're claiming they are the largest zookeeper of sports mascots on the internet.  Something about having the top 100 most popular  sports mascot in the most popular sports.   Examples;   coeddodgeball.com, logowatchs.com, cwsbaseball.com, trackclubs.com, flagfootballs.com, coachingg.com, celticsbasketball.com, bruinsbasketball.com, falconsfootball.com, lionfootball.com, knicksbasketball.com, redsoxsbaseball.com,   mobillocksmith.com    are just a few that I saw.   

I thought I would mention them since I uncovered them.   No website to speak of.</description>

		<description>"Do these companies represent all the major movers and shakers in our industry?"

-- I'm sure we'll miss a few, but we're gonna try to make this as comprehensive as possible..

		<description>Nice report!  I wonder what the collective worth of all these companies are, and how many total domains they own combined? Do these companies represent all the major movers and shakers in our industry?</description>

		<description>thanks a ton Shane, just got those listed..

For DirectNavigation.com, here's the news story about them going to NameMedia:

"NameMedia Acquires SmartName.com, Adds to Suite of Domain Name Market Solutions
Industry Pioneers Ari Goldberger and Lawrence Fischer Join NameMedia Team
Waltham, Mass, March 5, 2007
NameMedia today announced the acquisition of SmartName.com, one of the pioneers in providing monetization services for owners of high value domain name portfolios.

http://www.namemedia.com/about/releases/03-05-07.html"

it's odd, also, Washington VC and Internet Real Estate both say they own Software.com and Phone.com (whois says Internet Real Estate owns them though)

		<description>These might need to be on the list, too:
- InternetBrands.com
- DirectNavigation.com (or do Larry and Ari go with NameMedia now)?
- InternetLandrush.com (site is nothing to look at, but they've made some noise)
- Michael Mann's WashingtonVC.com</description>
