Past Experiences
Michael Gilmour's first job was with Melbourne House, as part of the team that developed the games "Lord of the Rings" and "Mugsy's Revenge"; he later worked on an early version of Nintendo. [1]
Later on, he created an online psychographic marketing that was used by a popular TV program for broadcasting alert messages directly to people's PCs. But, due to an unfortunate event, he lost all his investment and had to close the business.[2]
Current Projects
The idea for the ParkLogic network came after Michael participated as a speaker in the DomainFest Global conference; there he noticed that many people weren't maximizing the benefits offered by their domains. He subsequently developed ParkLogic.com with David Gibbs.[3]
Another important project is Whizzbangsblog, a blog on which Michael initially wrote articles on domaining from a very technical point of view. Today, it is a community of domainers that share their experiences and contribute articles. The blog's name derives from Michael's nickname as a child: whizzbang.[4]
Michael is the CEO of Simcast Media, an online platform built for a company's clients and their customers. Customers find more information about the companies they're interested in. Simcast is an accredited registrar of ICANN. [5].
