Whois & Analysis for citeulike.org

CiteULike was a web service which allowed users to save and share citations to academic papers.

Based on the principle of social bookmarking, the site worked to promote and to develop the sharing of scientific references amongst researchers.

In the same way that it is possible to catalog web pages (with Furl and delicious) or photographs (with Flickr), scientists could share citation information using CiteULike.

Richard Cameron developed CiteULike in November 2004 and in 2006 Oversity Ltd. was established to develop and support CiteULike.

In February 2019, CiteULike announced that it would be ceasing operations as of March 30, 2019.

Sports betting is the activity of predicting sports results and placing a wager on the outcome.

Sports bettors place their wagers either legally, through a bookmaker/sportsbook, or illegally through privately run enterprises referred to as "bookies".

The term "book" is a reference to the books used by wage brokers to track wagers, payouts, and debts.

Many legal sportsbooks are found online, operated over the Internet from jurisdictions separate from the clients they serve, usually to get around various gambling laws (such as the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 in the United States) in select markets, such as Las Vegas, or on gambling cruises through self-serve kiosks.

There are different types of legalized sports betting now such as game betting, parlays props and future bets.

They take bets "up-front", meaning the bettor must pay the sportsbook before placing the bet.

Due to the nature of their business, illegal bookies can operate anywhere but only require money from losing bettors and do not require the wagered money up front, creating the possibility of debt to the bookie from the bettor.

This creates a number of other criminal elements, thus furthering their illegality.

Online poker is the game of poker played over the Internet.

In a testimony before the United States Senate regarding Internet Gaming, Grant Eve, a Certified Public Accountant representing the US Accounting Firm Joseph Eve, Certified Public Accountants, estimated that one in every four dollars gambled is gambled online.

Esports, short for electronic sports, is a form of competition using video games.

Esports often takes the form of organized, multiplayer video game competitions, particularly between professional players, individually or as teams.

In the United States, bingo is a game of chance in which each player matches the numbers printed in different arrangements on cards.

The game host (a caller) draws at random, marking the selected numbers with tiles.

When a player finds that the selected numbers are arranged on their card in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line, they call out "Bingo!" to alert all participants to a winning card, which prompts the game host (or an associate assisting the host) to examine the card for verification of the win.

Players compete against one another to be the first to have a winning arrangement for the prize or jackpot.

After a winner is declared, the players clear their number cards of the tiles and the game host begins a new round of play.
