Well - we took it from squatters :) and are trying to turn it into something really useful. That's why looking for feedback on what we've built!

Took it from squatters? Do you mean legal action?

If so. I think this would definitely be worthy of a blog post on exactly how you did it.

Everytime I search for domain names, they are all taken up by squatters who want 5 to 6 figure amounts and they have been sitting on them for more than 5 years, 10 in some cases.

Of course I email them back laughing, but it does mean I have to choose something completely different.

I'm definitely not going to do a snappa.io to snappa.com lol [0].

I really wish there was a legal limit to how long you can squat, say 5 years, before it goes to a lottery system for a pool of people who applied to be apart of the lottery and can show legitimate use for it.
