New domain name impulse buy
I was browsing the list of domain names for sale on eBay the other day and I came across this. e85fuelsupply.com was for sale with one $1 bid. It’s something that I’ll build a website around if I have time, and if not, I should be able to sell it on for a nice profit, as the name is topical. It cost me the sum total of $1.36 in the end, and the domain still has the best part of a year to run on it’s registration (worth $8 on it’s own)!
I think I might put together a Google Maps mashup site, where visitors can maintain a list of petrol stations that stock E85 ethanol and maybe biodiesel. It’ll be quick to put together, I’ll learn something (I’ve not used Google’s AJAX APIs before) and not cost much to host, so very minimal Google Adwords should cover costs.
