Hehe, I suddenly feel like a domain squatter. I don't normally care about domains, but I noticed that a domain I wanted for my company [1] expired and is in redemption, so I started reading up about the process for grabbing it.

I then discovered expireddomains.net and have spent most of the last 6 hours filtering the recently expired domains. Just bought 12 of them, whittled down from a list of 20 odd that seemed relevant. And now I just want to keep searching for more! I hope I'm not addicted to this, could get expensive quickly!

[1] it's not a particularly important name, it just happens to be the codename I've been using for the product since day 1 rather than the "corporate" domain names I bought instead. I still prefer the codename, so tempted just to keep using that as the product name if I get the domain!

which ones did you get? show off your loot

They're all kind of boring, just things related to my in-development app that I might be able to use to drive SEO later on. None were a proper squatting takeover though, I don't think a single one of these had been actively used before. A couple had domain registrar style squatting for-sale pages in the very limited archive.org history, but for most of them all the archive.org history was just failed 302 redirects.

Happy Easter @FAT32 !

For real though, I'm worried about @FAT32. I joined this forum a few years ago, but haven't been active often outside of the black friday time frame. He's been a constant staple on the forum. His absence is a little alarming. He mentioned the challenge of balancing real responsibilities and this forum recently. I hope that he's only prioritizing real life.

He should have been paid. Maybe he wasn't and feels betrayed.
