That is why I have joined the Board at ICANN. I will push for legislation that if a Domain name remains dormant for the initial 1 year then the name is deemed is inactive and available for purchase again. Having the World's Dictionary held hostage for profit taking is insane.

I would love to see that put into place. Far to many domain hogging mofo's snatch up domains which they'll never use.

For instance I have wanted a domain for a few years, all this time it said "under construction" well she FINALLY put up a website and it only took her about 6 years.

Oh this is too painful to talk about.

At least I have a few good Hot Deals domains snatched up, now to put 'em to good use :)

akira.com has been under construction since I first wanted it over a year ago. If they're not going to do anything with it, they should let me have it.

I would if I were you, make sure to use a good domain registrar such as NameCheap.com. If you're going to have a small personal website then I'll gladly host it for free. PM me after you have registered the domain w/ NameCheap.
