Comment on the 2008 Domain Decline

Monday, January 5th, 2009

It’s a new year and I’m back (well almost) from taking a break since Christmas. Blogging is in my blood so I thought that it would be worthwhile reflecting for a moment on my last post about the charity that supports children that are HIV positive that my wife and I support called “Acres of Love”.

During the previous year I invited domain owners to support the charity with donations and about $2,500 was raised. This year the total has been $0. I could rant and rave about this being a sad indictment on our industry but I believe that it has nothing to do with people’s hearts and more to do with their wallets.
