Fannie Mae to buy KnowYourOptions.com.

Mortgage backer Fannie Mae has spent $50,000 (of basically your money) to buy the domain name KnowYourOptions.com. The site will no doubt explain your options if you find yourself behind on your mortgage.

The deal tied another domain name — VideoDating.com — for the top spot at domain broker Sedo this week. The seller of VideoDating.com is Steve Newman. He was president of GreatDomains back in the day and also owns Rock.com, a fully developed social network for music fans. Coincidentally, Sedo now owns GreatDomains.

The domain was purchased by someone in Canada. Perhaps they want to jump on the ChatRoulette.com bandwagon, but for more meaningful chat interactions?

Here are other notable sales from Sedo this past week.
