Not a single project, but a graveyard of expired domains. I constantly hunt for good dropped domains to build niche sites and blogs on them. I end up buying them, feeling a rush of productivity, and then leaving them parked while I go back to maintaining my existing apps.

Oh man I can relate. I think own 100 domains or so and can’t let myself let any expire.

Used to do this too, but the beginning of the calendar year was always like a sucker punch to the wallet.
Nowadays I just put all my projects, apps, and games on subdomains under a single main domain.

I own about 20 and 10 of them are live with projects that I built.

Out of curiosity, how much does it cost you annually to renew all of your domains?

I think at least $1k and yes I have a problem.
