I have been writing a few articles about the SnapNames fraud that took place over the past five years. I speculated that DomainQueue selling domains to iREIT helped uncover the scam. And finally, I pointed out a few mistakes that Nelson Brady made while maintaining his domain portfolio.

For the third time in about a month Snapnames has had a major system outage. The two outages that were most noticeable happened on weekends. While the outage notification e-mail from Snapnames says it is a vendor issue, the real question is why these outages so frequently occur on weekends and which party is not handling the support relationship correctly.

Snapnames has redesigned the look of their site. Dare I say that it looks more like Pool.com? Instead of adding more colors, perhaps they could have improved their backend system which dropped my favorite back-ordered domain on Sunday.
