Because we own a number of tech and industrial domains, I thought it would be useful to analyze exactly what domains are owned by some of the big tech/industrial corporations. The RobbiesBlog lists posted regularly on Domaining.com are often of very significant companies with regard to this aim, so I tired my eyes out by taking a close look at the GE (General Electric) list. I’m really impressed with this one. The recent Comcast list was full of misspellings of their company names; they own even the silly Exphinity.com, I think, along with every other wrong way to write their name.
But GE registered tons of invented brand names and many of these are now fully operating big companies on their own, representing their own technologies. I thought I’d post my notes from that list.
These domains caught my notice:
- coincidence.com
- creda.com
- cyberteque.com
- cybricon.com
- d-mensions.com
- d-agnosis.com

DaTScan (a radioactive drug used for imaging made by GE Healthcare), EchoSeed (Nycomed Amersham[GE Healthcare], also made OncoSeed, therapy for prostate patients using Iodine-125), EcoRAM (more compact computer storage, owned by Virident/Western Digital), Edison Elite (orthotic insoles or Elite Lighting and Edison Price Lighting),
- Formasil.com — In their company GE Silicones, they make a waterproof coating called Formasil.
- FurniturePolish.net
- FromDNAtoNDA.com — I really wonder about this one, esp. as it redirects to GE Healthcare. And what are they up to with that DestroyYourBusiness.com?
