I now have two choices:

1) I resell it and just get rid of it. I'm not sure if I have the time for it.

2) I develop it a little and try to sell it off to gain some value out of my stupid move. I'm thinking an 'about.me' but more geared towards greeting people (saying hello?). Maybe add a social component with virtual handshakes and all. Plaster some adds on it. And call it a day. That seems easy enough. I honestly can't think of any other ways to use this domain name.


Update**

Maybe I'll hold onto it for a rainy day when I get bored. I can do some fun things with this. Some ideas are starting to come to me. Maybe it wasn't a bad move after all.

If anyone has any ideas then feel free to let me know

Whilst greeting.me is good. As a stand alone domain name it is slightly flawed by the ing. But you could turn the ing to your advantage if you find a way to develop it correctly.

The general rule of thumb in the domaining world. Only buy a domain if you can see an easy route for development.

So, what to do with Greeting.me well, all I can say is this, if you are not 100% happy with or you can't find a fit consider the following, with every .me auction the one word dictionary domains are increasing in value. That does not look set to change yet.

I would say that if you hold out a few months and you relist this in the next .me auction, you will easily get your money back on it, and some.

I have maths.me that I bought a while back for about $100. Americans say math but UK and other english speaking countries like New Zealand say maths that is why I was attracted to it.

mathematics.me sold in this auction for $499 from my perspective maths.me is a stronger domain than mathmatics.me

I was thinking of developing my domain into a math/s tutor site, but I might just make a quick buck in the next .me auction.

Thank you for your very insight post..that is very helpful. I never considered the value of words like that.

I also agree 100% of about the .ing, and that is exactly why I am not liking this win. I don't think it completely ruins it. But it just throws it off a little.
