My apologies for not posting lately, have been quite busy and that coupled with my laziness simply equals no posts for a long time. So anyway, what have I been up to lately…

When it comes to domaining I have to say I’m getting a little bit bored of it. It’s just become a completely routine job for me, going through my daily lists, picking domains etc. I’m actually thinking about putting my domaining operation on “autopilot” since I’ve tought all my guys how to handle everything. Recently I hit 1 million uniques a day as I’ve planned. That was a always my goal and since it’s already reached I just don’t have that much motivation to be honest. To keep myself motivated I just need to keep on coming up with new projects etc that keep me entertained for a year or two.

Two weeks ago we had the iGaming Supershow in Prague, which is basically a huge gettogether for people who are in the online gambling business. I have to say that this industry shares a lot with domaining in the sense that it is a pretty tightly knit circle, pretty secretive etc. One thing is certaing though – it is significantly larger than domaining. I’ve been looking into a gaming project of my own, which I plan to launch maybe in 6 months. My idea is basically to teach people to play various casual skill games against each other for money and charge a rake for connecting players together in the same way poker sites operate. So the idea is that people could play chess, checkers, scrabble etc against each other for a dollar or something like that. I think it will make the games more fun to play as well.

Another of my new projects is a wood processing plant that we will start building in Eastern Slovakia soon. We will basically be processing waste wood and manufacturing wooden pellets out it that will be used by powerplants in Austria and Italy. It’s quite a complex project with a lot of inputs etc, but it’s something new to keep me entertained.

Our online insurance broker ePojisteni.cz has been running strong. We will be moving into a bigger office next month to house our growing army of brokers in the callcenter, currently we have 40 there fulltime. We are also planning a large TV campaign for the autumn on national TV since the pools of available traffic online are just getting slimmer and slimmer and we simply need to keep growing.

Our liposuction clinic Slim & GO has been a big hit, we are currently running on full capacity with 5 machines operating 12 hours a day – we are doing 40 clients a day now. We’re just signing a lease for a new location where we plan to open our secong clinic, which should be even bigger than our first one. It might be a stretch to fill it up with clients, but challenge accepted :) .

Our facebook developer Viral Maniacs is hopefully going to launch its new game in the US in about 2 weeks. It’s something similar to the Sims. The first version of the game which we only launched in the Czech Rep has been quite a success, he already have about 80k users and 3k join everyday. Viral Maniacs should hopefully break even in July, which would be nice.

I’m also helping out with our new CPA department, I’ll probably joing them for LeadsCon in July in New York.

And that’s pretty much it now…
