I have been trying all day to rally every entity I have any influence over to go buy me WallStreet.com.  It’s going up for sale at $3 million this weekend at Moniker’s auction and I want it.  Badly.

Further fueling my desire to be the Gordon Gecko of spam is that I also was told today that TheStreet.com just sold off a minority interest for $55 million.  A much crappier domain name + a terrible website + underdeveloped web audience = at least $110 million. 

In my opinion, WallStreet.com is one of the few chances you’ll get to realize the lifecycle that Business.com did.  There is almost no way that domain name fails if somebody with a clue is behind its audience development and their sales organization can find Manhattan on a map. 

This domain is no longer meant for domainers.  They should take their seven-figure cashout of the initial real estate and now hand it off to somebody who can spam it…err, develop it.  It’s time to let it grow.  It’s a no-brainer and I’m sad that I’m probably going to miss my opportunity to buy the domain name at a fair valuation by about 2 years. 

If there’s any mystery as to what I’ll be doing after my Silicon Valley Trench Time, this post and my obsession with DemandMedia should end it.
