What do you guys suggest doing with brilliant late night domain registrations that next day you realize may be a while before you develop (if ever)? I usually make a little content page that links to the pages I am concentrating on but I've got some just sitting there with the parked page which means money for registar, not for me.

There's a lot of things you could use it for. TGP submissions, a central place to hold your FPAs/Banners for your outclick script, a central recip domain - just about anything.

Mine - I'll probably use it for testing out scripts.

Just had to rereg a nice name I found in the expired lists early this morning because I typo'd it in my registrar.

Find a good name, highlight it, ctrl + c the ctrl + v

That's the thing. I swore I did that - I even used the paste to set up the domain on my server using the control panel and that's spelt correctly.

**alexg** · 09-04-2004, 01:15 PM

so what's the misspelled domain you got?

**http** · 09-04-2004, 01:27 PM

and don't register .us domains with fuck or tits in them. They'll let you register and a few months later it'll be put on serverhold

Stuff like this is why I hide my CC when I get really drunk
