Just Landed A New Domain

Pool.com has been good to me in the past. I’ve acquired quite a few decent domains that were let go by others. Just the other day, however, I backordered an unexpected domain. I rarely check my pool account and sometimes I go a little overboard backordering. When I checked my email I was surprised to see that I was the proud owner of I’mLinked.com. I don’t remember backordering it, but it’s there in my account. Now, what to do with it? Hmmm…any ideas?

Getting Rid of Excess Domains

It would appear that I didn’t think enough about OverThinker.com. I’ve held onto the domain for the past year stewing over my intentions for it. Originally, my plan was to build something similar to To-Done with my own creative spin. It would have been something enjoyable, but I had to break ties with yet another domain.

My commitment to my current projects can’t be forgotten because I found my new domain for the day. Hey, I’m not afraid to admit it. I’m a domain junky. There I said it! Searching for quality domains has become a hobby and when I spotted OverThinker.com way back when I couldn’t help myself…very marketable domain in my opinion. Basically, it boiled down to the fact that I wasn’t passionate about my new idea. This in no way implies I won’t happily start additional projects. Maybe I’ll just take an additional minute to contemplate adding tomorrow’s domain of the day to my shopping cart ; - ).

In the end I decided an auction would be to painful. : - (
I simply posted that it was available for a low ball amount on my favorite webmaster forum and I had an offer within minutes. FYI…the new owner is considering building a conspiracy theory website. Could be interesting. So did we really land on the moon or what?
