Fine., Also try to find "heat map" of user's mouse activities(hover) or click ratio. Try to give rating for those available domains for yourself and prioritize them based on it. Diff colors, Diff font size.. This will start rocking your popularity & aff earning ;)

I had thought of clicks, but not hover ratio--that's pretty interesting.
I may have to experiment with that, thanks for the idea.
I find http://impossibility.org to be a fair bit faster and with a bit more control over options. Suggestion: it'd be nice if one could toggle between what registrar they wish to use and have the URLs automatically updated.
When I scroll down a little and try to highlight a domain name, as soon as I click on the white-space, it scrolls to the top.
All I am trying to do is highlight:

Great tool. I like its results more than impossibilit...
Additional value would be to check associated Twitter/Facebook usernames - you're not just searching for a domain name, you're searching for a brand, right?
Great service though (impressed by Impossibility! too).

[ 56.1 ms ] story [ 549 ms ] threadI thought it turned out decent enough, so I'm releasing it, hoping others will find it useful.
There are tons of these domain keyword tools around, here's why I built this one:
- Wanted to check the best keywords first, then fallback to less popular keywords
- Handle plural/singular keywords gracefully (like greatguitar.com, guitargreat.com, greatguitars.com, but not guitarsgreat.com)
- Use WHOIS rather than DNS to determine availability (more accurate, but slower)
- Simple to use
- Fast
There's still a lot to do, but in the spirit of release early and often, I'd love some feedback on this.
Do you find this useful?
Good luck.
The site may be a little slower than normal right now because of HN traffic, but I'm working on keeping it going.
Thanks for your feedback.

I'll work on adding more registrars, this is planned.
The site is slower than normal right now due to increased load, but should return to normal after the HN spike. If not I'll more workers.
My goal is that you should never have to wait for results. By the time you click "Load more results", they should already be available.

I've tweaked some settings to try and handle the load better (250K domains checked in 2 hours was a little more than I expected).
How are you checking for name availability? Every option I've looked at either wants to charge me money, or has a TOS that's hostile to scripting.

Thanks for the video, that makes debugging much easier.
All in all, great first start. It'll be powerful once you start including other domains (.me, .us etc)
Great service though (impressed by Impossibility! too).
