It was a beautiful day in October 2007 when a group of domain mavericks (I thought I’d never use this word outside of the Sarah Palin context) each bought a stake in the domain name Cowboys.com for a total of $370 grand.
But where is the cowboy posse now? The domain is currently parked. Parked as in, resembling a deserted saloon in a town that emptied – once the gold rush was over.
Rumors that Injun Joe and Little Rainbow from the Arapahoe tribe attempted to strong-arm the domain away from the group are not substantiated.
Generic domains serve one purpose: to be developed. Tumbleweeds, anyone?
