After this thread earlier: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=652952 I decided that it would be fun to put together a "domain name classifieds". There's a few things I'd add, but I wanted to get some feedback first, see if I was even heading in the right direction.

Haven't bought a domain for it yet, maybe I'll find one on my own site if this takes off ;)



Another thought: put a better title on this news item, please.


Actually, I thought it was good question to ask, certainly better than the dozens of "review my startup" posts I frequently see here.


It is, but a 3 or 4 word description along with it would be nice.


"Would you use this classifieds service for domain names?" sounds about right


I put on my two excess domains, and I tried to put in that I'd give them away for a $10 donation to a worthy non-profit. (Some guy in the domain swap thread asked for the same, and I thought it was a good idea.)

Instead, it converted that to $0. Maybe have a comment field?

Also, how can I edit listings after the fact?

Edit: http://mailhide.recaptcha.net/ is pretty good for protecting emails from getting harvested.


I'll add a comments field. I haven't implemented editing yet. I was looking to show off a very unfinished product to the audience who inspired it before making it a really viable service. Mailhide sounds like a good idea.

Thanks for the pointers.


You can now edit and delete your listings. Also, I've implemented mailhide.
