I was shopping around for new domain names, as I do from time to time, and I thought I’d check on sinclaire.com. I already own robertsinclaire.com, my name, but I thought that sinclaire.com would make a nice addition to my ever growing domain name collection. As suspected, the name was already snatched up. But what I found interesting, and disturbing at the same time, was GoDaddy’s list of recommended domain names — just for me.
A search for SINCLAIRE.com prompted GoDaddy to recommend these alternate domain names:
ERRORCLAIRE.COM
TRANSGRESSIONCLAIRE.COM
WRONGDOINGCLAIRE.COM
MISDEEDCLAIRE.COM
How sad is that. I feel like I’m being judged by a piece of software. I always knew GoDaddy’s website didn’t like me. Now I have the proof!
