How many domains do you personally own or maintain? I'm curious what the distribution is. For purposes of this poll, you should count any domain which you (1) pay for personally, (2) are the technical or administrative contact for, (3) are the chair of the relevant committee at the non-profit where you volunteer, (4) any other case that you personally think is reasonable.

I'm down to five.

If we let "personally" cover "out-of-pocket as business expenses": 14.

I am sorta loosely connected with one, which is the site for the band of which I am a member. I have some veto rights over its content but I don't actually maintain it, put stuff on it, take stuff of it, or do any of the technical work surrounding it.

I am a humanities geek, rather lopsidedly. I am DEFINITELY not a tech geek.

Just one. But that one is Calendar Geeks, so hopefully my geek cred isn't too damaged. :P

Three...not very geeky, but one of them is mekudeshet.li, which I have solely for the joy of having one's email address be harei@mekudeshet.li...that's quite geeky...

Careful! If someone emails you in front of two kosher witnesses, you might wind up being married :-)

at any given point it tends to waffle between eight and 12.

3 -- two for me, one for my wife. About 6 years ago I bought about 12, and have sold them off over the years for a total profit of about $10,000. (Not directly relevant to your question, but I like telling the story.)

I think only one, though it's possible there's another I've forgotten about. Long renewals make it easy to lose them.

I am at 5, though I am a bit behind and need to order two more...

I've got two. I will probably not renew one of them when it expires next year.

I have three: two are variations of my name, and the third is a secret one I haven't done anything with yet. (ooooooo)

One.

I guess I should get another three or four, since all the cool kids....

I have 3, and I feel like such a slacker. :-)

Let's see...

I'm up to 93 separate domain names, I think. It's way too many, but I tend to reserve them in clusters (.com, .org, .net and .info are my usual set).

Anyone got a recommendation for a cheap (i.e., < $8.99/year) registry?

Thx,
-pd
