Technically speaking, the domain doesn't have much to do with the prize/site, there are typically several prizes hosted off the same domain (the config=XXXX parameter determines what site you see). There is usually a default site for each domain that you get without a config parameter.
Use any WHOIS search to find the domain info, including expiration. I like DomainTools.
http//whois.domaintools.com/techygadget.com
They have not renewed yet, but that is not uncommon for I-Deal. They usually let domains expire for awhile before renewing, if they ever renew at all. There is a grace period that will let them keep the domain if they renew it during that period.
There are enough other I-Deal plasma sites out there right now that I wouldn't bother with this domain, unless you have a DBA restriction to work around or something.

I don't know. I mailed mine away, and it said they had to have the form by the 24th to redeem (I finished the 22nd). I kind of took that to mean it wasn't going to be renewed.
Happily, it all seems to have worked out for me.

The domain expiring or not should have no bearing on your forms being processed. If you've already been approved and got the forms, you don't need the site anymore. You'll be blind to your status updates, of course, but it won't effect whether you get the prize or not.

No, it just means somebody updated something in the DNS record. Could have been the registrar, could have been I-Deal. The expiration date is still today, and if the domain is renewed it will change to a year or two from now. I've never seen I-Deal yet renew a domain before it expires, so I'd be surprised if they renew this one for awhile yet, if at all.

Probably, they release new sites all the time. But DBA's aren't limited to a single domain. I-Deal DBA's run numerous domains at once, so it's not like they wait for one to expire before offering something new.

They're not that hard to find, really. Since you've done at least one, you should have a full spam box by now. Combing through spam is one of the best ways to find them. Also via their banner ads at many sites like MySpace, YouTube, and other pop-culture type sites that attract a lot of young people.

[quote27b045d764="edgespeeder04"]weird the 27th today and the site is still running, why is that?[/quote27b045d764]
Probably because the domain hasn't been parked yet? Why are you so adamant about this site? There are dozens of other sites out there with no expiration, I'm not sure why you're so concerned about this one being renewed. I'd forget about it for awhile if I were you, then maybe check on it in a few weeks.
[b27b045d764]EDIT[/b27b045d764] Actually, the reason it's still running is because the domain has been renewed. With all the previous instructions on how to check for yourself, you should have figured this out.

GoDaddy automatically renews domains even if the person doesn't pay for hosting. They allow a certain grace period after which, if they don't renew, it expires. This has happened before on previous i-deal sites.

I haven't seen that before with other I-Deal sites. When they say the domain is expiring, it drops on that day and shows expired in the WHOIS, and the site goes dead. And I've had domains for years, but then again I've never let my domains expire, so I'm not positive how different registrars handle expirations.
And the grace periods I have seen did not auto-renew the domain (unless you actually pay for auto-renewal, which fully renews the domain), they simply held the domain in limbo in the expired state, giving you time to renew without losing it. But I'm not aware of a grace period that automatically resets the expiry date. Not saying for certain it doesn't look that way, perhaps I just never noticed it.
Sorry for the bad info, I was going strictly off the WHOIS and my past experience with expired I-Deal domains.

bruman and Roll, go to your neutral corners and give it a rest. I think it has been well established by now that Roll has strong opinions about I-Deal, which he is entitled to. As do those of us that are happy with them. Let's all agree to disagree and move on, we don't need this petty bickering in response to every discussion of I-Deal. If it continues to devolve into flames, then the parties involved will be temp-banned until it gets under control.
