Domain Movers digs deep to find domain names that have been acquired by large companies. Some domains may have simply been registered and others are moving around for some other reason.

Nurse.com has changed ownership from Gannett Co., Inc to OnCourse Learning Corporation. Gannett Healthcare Group was sold to OnCourse Learning as announced in late December 2014 and one of the assets of GHG was Nurse.com!
