Suggest Top Tools, Sites, Resources for Newbies!

[KNichole]

Hi. I'm not new at dnforum, but a newborn to buying/selling
domain names. SO ... this is my official "Hello I'm A Newbie"!
I really love this forum and have learned alot being here! I've
been dabbling in internet marketing the last few years, but
have found that domain names and web design are what I
enjoy the most and should focus on. I've started tons of
research and trying tools this week, so i can figure out the
best products and sites to use. It takes so much time to
learn, so I thought I'd ask some advice here. For myself and
all the other newbies: Could you experienced domain gurus
suggest your Top Favorite Tools, Websites, & Resources to
get us started in the right directon? I want to dive into this
to learn as much as I can, as quickly as possible. With the
hopes of the Big Profits, but for the love of it as well!
Thanks in advance!

www.dnsreport.com & www.dnsstuff.com - no toolbox would be complete without these two
www.freewho.com - whois tool
www.whois.sc - whois tool (paid service for whois history too)
www.m-w.com - Online Dictionary
www.archive.org/web/web.php - Wayback Machine for old content
www.justdropped.com - deleting domains search
http://inventory.overture.com/d/sear...ory/suggestion - Overture keyword

These are just a few that I use frequently. I'm sure others have a nice list also. Check out http://www.pendingdelete.info/ for more links.
