I find multiple searches VERY useful. While they may take longer, I'm not
looking to have it for customer use but for our internal use searching a
number of domains for our clients. I had been wanting to request something
like what Dotster has where you can search and register up to 300 at once.
You can check their interface at:
http://www.dotster.com/Register/RegOptions/Bulk/
I can paste multiple names from prepared text files and have found 200+
domain name searches returning in around 25 seconds. Now that saves us a
tremendous amount of time!
Their return page shows whether each domain is available or not and you
can check off what you want to register, meaning you can then register
your choice of up to 300 names at one time.
We are dealing with bulk, a special whois like this would be great.
