# Welcome to the blog

This blog is where Namegarage says what changed. New features on the site,
new ways to buy, occasional engineering notes on how the catalog is priced
and published — and, once the feature exists, domain deals.

Three honest notes about how it works:

**The older posts are backfilled.** The blog launched today, but the
features it describes shipped over the past months. Rather than pretend
history started now, we wrote those posts and dated them when each feature
actually shipped. The dates come from our own commit history.

**Posts follow releases, loosely.** When something user-visible ships, a
post follows — within hours or days, not minutes. We would rather write it
well than write it first.

**You can subscribe.** There is an [RSS feed](/blog/feed.xml), and every
post is filed under a category — [Releases](/blog/category/releases),
[Engineering](/blog/category/engineering), [News](/blog/category/news) —
and tagged, so you can follow only what you care about. The **Deals**
category is empty today; when we start running deals on named inventory,
they will appear there first.

That is the whole pitch. No newsletter popup, no growth hacks — a changelog
with opinions, from people selling domains who would like you to trust them.
