This is rubbish.
I am (was) a serial domain buyer. Now, I guess its somewhat true that buying a domain to go with your idea can really inspire you, I have a lot of domains I let expire or still hold on to because I haven't yet or never did anything with them. I don't think its a good idea.
- eightturn 10y agothanks for the feedback.. it works for some folks, not for others.. true. I wanted to simply try and shift the thinking for anyone out there dabbling. Once I saw domain names in this light, it really helped me focus and concentrate on building..
- pscsbs 10y agoI think calling it rubbish is a bit extreme. I am definitely motivated by purchasing a domain. Yes, not all ideas pan out but it gives me a good jolt to explore the underlying business and implementation.

- stevekemp 10y agoI'm the same, I've had domains for years that I've never gotten round to using, and others that I've eventually let lapse. In all the time I've had a bunch of domains there's only been interest in one of them `spare.io`, for which I've had multiple unsolicated offers. (That despite the fact I have two forename-based domains.)
- icantdrive55 10y agoIt become a habit for me. I did buy physibles though. Someone offered me $15,000 at the height of the 3-D printing hootenanny. Stupidly--I turned it down. I has such big plans. Now I keep it because it's such a weird word, and new people I meet remember it.
