I have 3 that I currently have that are worth mentioning, 2 of which I don't use at the moment πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ:

a2z.dev

I have been building this for a few weeks, it will be my personal blog plus a load of resources. Currently unused a2z.dev

How this was available I have no idea, it seems like a prime domain name for any developer resource!


milliondollarkey.com

I bought this on a whim, still no idea what to do with it lol.

The only reason I bought it is that it is part of the million dollar homepage, a little bit of internet history!

I wrote about it here (for those of you not old enough to know what the million dollar homepage was all about):


πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’»πŸ‘©β€πŸ’».to

This was a silly one!

I bought it to point to my dev.to profile! It actually works - copy this into your URL bar: πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’».to

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’».to

And obviously, I wrote about that too:

If you want to see hundreds of random domain names people own

I did a silly post where I asked people to share their random domain names and I would come up with a purpose for them.

It was a really fun thing to do (and I even think I nailed it on a couple of them) and some of the things people bought are hilarious!:

It is {% post then the link of your article and then close it with %}

Search Google for β€œeditor guide dev.to” and it has all of the β€œliquid tags” you can use there πŸ‘
