I took a spin through SullysBlog.com and all of the interviews, reviews and editorials that I have posted over the years. It's amazing to see how much has changed and how much as stayed the same. One area that caught my interest was that some of the great names that I had interviewed or mentioned in the past are now parked, for sale, or otherwise not in use. That's not to say that the business or people behind these domains were failures. In some cases they may have been, in others, domain may have changed hands and the new owners have chosen to park the name until they are ready to use it or resell. We can really only speculate.
I decided to list 97 of such domain names straight from the pages of SullysBlog.com. This is not all inclusive. There are other names that now have different sites or point to different URLs, but I have excluded those. I am not passing judgement, but there are certainly lessons to be learned here. You can poke around and decide for yourself. Below you'll find the domain name, a link to the post where the name was featured or mentioned on my site, and they result I found when visiting that domain today.
Now, if you will excuse me, I have a lot of broken links to cleanup on my blog.
