Google Domains

SEW’s Gary Price has put together an extensive list of many domains owned by Google. Some of these domains can get one’s mind going as to what are they up to (ie. Googlegalactic.com). Other domains have obviously been registered just so no-one else will own them (ie. GoogleSucks.com)…

Some of the domains listed are, in fact, property of ’sound companies’ which apparently owned by Google and were created to not pull too much attention to Google’s actions / plans. These domains, then, get transferred under Google’s name as products are ready to be launched.

The GCalendar.com domain has been registered since 2004. However, it hasn’t always been registered to Data Docket. Using a WHOIS History database I was able to track down the following:

GCalendar was first registered in April, 2004

In September, 2004, the WHOIS History database shows GCalendar was registred to Guido Pantnella in Walnut Creek, CA.

On October 6, 2004, the domain was transferred to Trout & Zimmer, a Burbank, CA firm that helps companies register/acquire domains.

On July 7, 2005, the domain was transferred to Data Docket.
