After entering a couple dozen domain names to my Afternic.com portfolio, I was thinking it sure was going to take a long time to get all of them listed. Then, luckily, I realized there is a function to upload the information from a spreadsheet. Man, was that ever a timesaver! I already had my names in an Excel spreadsheet, so I just had to move some things around and add some information here and there, but with copy and pasting I was able to breeze through the 200+ listings in just a few hours. There’s also a download feature, so even if I make some manual changes to my listings online, I can then download a new, current copy of the comma-delimited file to my computer.

Having it all in a spreadsheet also made it easy for me to create a list of my domains that I could put up on this blog. If you are interested in seeing all my (good and not-so-good) names and promise not to laugh at some, you can go to the “My Domains” link in the next column. You’ll see that I’m obviously I’m a bit obsessed about a couple areas of interest–solar and robotics. The other large group of political names were purchased before I starting really thinking about domains, and some of my names show it .
