Budweiser should certainly go after dude.com, for the "dude" ad campaign their running.

Who is running the auction?

SnapNames is running the Auction, some of the names look good and resonably priced reserve - but others have ridiculous reservses.

For instance a $1.1m reserve on dude

The question is will the smart money wade in and buy OR will it sit on the sidelines, waiting for the economic picture to come into focus? Wait for "more bad news" and look to buy on the cheap OR buy now?

My bet is each domain will stand on its own, as they likely will be purchased based upon a development model that fits and has some evidence of profitability.

Dude.com?
