Did Google just buy G.me?

G.me now registered to brand protection company.

The whois record for the domain name G.me recently changed to DNStination Inc., which is the proxy service for brand protection company Mark Monitor:

The change was just triggered on DomainTools yesterday, although the record shows it was altered on April 20.

The domain name was previously a registry reserved domain name.

Although nothing is definitive, there’s a good possibility that Google is the new owner. Google uses Mark Monitor for some of its domain name registrations. Given Mark Monitor’s need to avoid conflict of interest amongst clients, at a minimum I’d assume that Google was aware of any transaction for G.me.

There’s also a Google Chrome extension called G+Me.

Subject: Website Purchase Inquiry

Hi,

I am interested in setting up a new blogging website on your domain name.

My name is Adam and I located your contact information through a domain look up and I understand that you are the owner of DNW.com. I’ve been working in establishing a number of high quality websites for quite some time and think that your domain name fits in perfectly with the blog!

In my current situation, I would like to set up a new blogging site and conducted several site searches relating to my niche.

I decided to contact you after finding out that your domain is not one which is highly active at the moment. Obviously I would provide you some compensation for the exchange, so If you are willing to sell your domain name please let me know what sort of price range you would be willing to sell for and we can discuss further.

Furthermore since this is our first time to do business, I can easily set up an escrow service to ensure a safer business transaction for both of us if you would prefer.

Again, feel free to contact me through my email address if you would like to discuss.

Sincerely,
Adam Daniels
Zoom-IT

 Elliot Silver: There are many publicly traded companies that own the .com domain name that match their stock symbol. One example, of course, is Facebook, which acquired FB.com last year and now trades under the FB symbol on the NASDAQ stock exchange.
