UK blogger sells for $50k

[gimpydog]

"I’m not giving up blogging but I am giving up this domain - I’ve put it up for auction. Proud as I am of having owned this domain and run this blog for over seven years there’s a $50,000 offer on the table so I couldn’t really say no.".....more

There have been lots of blogs selling lately, so perhaps it's not surprising that someone made an offer for the domain. I can see it being worth a fortune to the likes of MSN/Yahoo/eBay.

It will also be one of the top .org sales....

It seems the LSE know more about domain prices than UCL - one to remember

Nice story and seems like a nice guy that will make a bit of cash. I wonder what it will go for in the end - at 51k now.

This is something that crossed my mind too after recent sales.
