The document summarises the first year of .me domain names as well as provides an exhaustive overview of "me" advertising with numerous examples.

.ME enjoyed record auction sales: Date.Me was sold for $ 70,000. Another very attractive domain name Insure.Me scored impressive $ 68,000. Some other big sales include: Love.Me - $ 32,500; Ask.Me, Hug.Me, Kiss.Me, and Teach.Me - $ 20,000 each; Match.Me, Rank.Me, Buy.Me - $ 17,500 each; Verify.Me - $ 16.000; LasVegas.Me, ChatWith.me, Korea.me - all above $ 15,000; Solve.Me - $ 13,116; Picture.Me - $ 10,240; and Recruit.Me - $ 10,155.

The word "me" can be found on every fourth web page. It is used by thousands of companies for their brands and marketing campaigns to steer the consumers into buying their products. Apple's "Mobile Me", Microsoft's "It's all about me", the famous British "Model.Me" beauty brand, "23andMe" the genetics testing company co-founded by Anne Wojcicki, the wife of Sergey Brin (Google co-founder) - the list is practically endless.
