Life is grand

Noah wrote about a few of the domains he owns, the ideas behind them and why they have languished.

I own just four domains. PaulMWatson.com you are on and is my email, IM and blog domain. It needs a lot more work than just this basic WordPress installation but I keep having to do that day job thing first. Then there is Colib.com which is similar to the existing Shelfari/LibraryThing. I have spent a lot of time on it but find myself reworking it every three months such that it never launches. Jaggr.net was a bee in my bonnet I got one weekend. It is supposed to be a Job Board Aggregator and the code and design is all done. When I came to launching it though I got caught up in getting Ruby on Rails working on the Blacknight Hosting, got frustrated and left it. You have to do a support call to get your Rails app server recycled which is a pain if you made a mistake in your YAML. Finally there is WebTwoZero.com which I meant to be a TechCrunch style site only less hyperbolic. But I have that day job thing and I decided to put the domain up for sale rather.

What domains do you have you are not paying due attention to? How do you get an idea, keep it and get it launched before you get bored an move on?

Inspired by Noah Brier and his One A Day project using a MacBook Pro’s iSight. I own a Canon EOS 20D but that is far too much hassle for a daily photo. The iSight makes it pretty painless. I’ll reserve the better camera for a once-a-year photo on my birthday.

Check out an article on it, Project 365.

I gave the Flickrexport plugin for iPhoto a try but iPhoto went beserk and I’ll be manually uploading until I figure that out.

I am going to try and get the latest photo displayed in my blog’s sidebar. To scare little children.
