Sedo, which is a marketplace for buying and selling Internet domain names, has been set as the overseer for the sale of rss.com by Torex.

RSS(Really Simple Syndication) is a form of automated news feed delivery over the Internet. Since it has been introduced, the availability of news and information in a quick, easy format has risen dramatically.

Torex hopes to sell the domain name for such a high price because they feel that with about 4,350,000,000 pages on Google any business could use the name to attract customers and boost their search engine rankings.

The auction for the domain name will be held on www.greatdomains.com. If you think that you might be interested you should contact Sedo or visit their website and search for rss.com

A press release was issued today through Business Wire about Register.com and SnapNames.com Renew Exclusive Agreement for Domain Name Auction Services.

Register.com and SnapNames.com had an exclusive deal that came up for renewal and they agreed to extend the relationship. Domain names which are registered with Register.com but surrendered by their previous registrants are made available exclusively on the SnapNames auction platform.

From the release and summarized by the CEO of Register.com “We’ve been a long-standing partner with SnapNames for aftermarket services,” said Register.com CEO Larry Kutscher. “SnapNames was the first company to offer an organized aftermarket platform for buying and selling domain names. It consistently provides excellent service to its partners and customers and has a great reputation for transparency and performance. Because of these factors, we wanted to continue that productive relationship.”

Looks like a productive relationship for them, for the rest of us I am not so sure.
