Most of the obvious guru addresses are already gone, and GoDaddy is still doing preorders (5am NZ is still another hour from now).

I've seen a couple, but nothing that makes me want to spend $40 on.

Basically all generics are taken already (code, software, IT, devops, etc). Most languages are gone, except for Golang and Erlang. I checked a few frameworks, and RubyOnRails is still available, but stuff like Django is out.

I didn't do an exhaustive search though.

Oh, interesting. I assumed that since they had a specific date and time they went on sale..... that's when you could start claiming them. Kind of doesn't make sense to me. I'm no domain mogul though, I just think they're fun to have.

You can preorder for $39.99, or priority preorder for $189.99. If you simply pre-order and multiple people pre-order, then it goes to auction. I assume everything it's telling me is "available" is available as a pre-order, and the ones that aren't are priority pre-orders.
