Two friends of mine and occasional poker buddies have done extremely well with their company, IREIT and I just happened upon an feauture article about them in a major trade journal. Bob Martin and Marc Ostrofsky even mentioned that they met at a Houston Angel Network meeting, which makes me doubly proud of them.

The company buys domain names in bulk and at last count they were just shy of 500,000 that they then aggregate the traffic for Google and Yahoo. Great business model - and clearly successful, I’m just sorry I didn’t jump on board when they gave me the opportunity a few months back.
