We own about 170 domains right now. We are actively exploring the best place to sell them. I am going to write an article tonight going over some of the major domain selling sites. I will linkback this article because there is some very good material in it. Great article, Jason. We own about 170 domains right now. We are actively exploring the best place to sell them.

I think domaining is important. Another aspect of domains, with looking towards the future, is that most resumes will be personal and professional websites. That is why I keep www.kyleeslick.com parked in my name :) For me its not as much of a risk, but for someone with a common name (like John Smith), getting that domain could be a challenge. I've considered keeping my kids names reserved as well, so they have access to them 15 years from now when they are starting to build their websites/resumes. Jason,
