     I really would like to have a tool that would help me keep track of where each domain was parked.

    You know what would be cool? Something that let me relatively quickly import csv/xml/wtfe files from various parking companies into a management app. I'm thinking of one of two ways, or a hybrid.

    1) We get the format from, say, the top ten park systems and automagically recognize them. This would involve some ongoing maintenance whenever they change their formats.

    2) Parse through uploaded files, make a best guess at what each column represents (some would be easy, some harder), then present the user two groups:

    a) we think these fields from the parked system map to these fields in ours; user could confirm or modify those as needed;

    b) we aren't sure what these other fields are; please look for and pick a match from our list of fields

    Option 2, we could maybe somehow programatically "learn" from the files as they were uploaded - once we have seen a few files from parking place XYZ, we can recognize new XYZ files going forward. As the user base grows, our database grows.

    I like - I think we already have tools that can do the majority of that here at domainly.com...what would you do with that information once it is imported/aggregated?  i.e. what questions do you want to answer?

    Re: Domain tools

    I would like to be able to compare portions of my portfolio across different parking systems. Each system has it's own disparate means for seeing how the domains parked in that system are doing, some provide a lot of useful functionality but it's time-consuming to put together comparisons of performance of a group of domains that have been parked at different parking companies over time.

    And on the flipside of that, I would like to look at long-term trends of a specific domain. One experiment I am running has involved moving some domains between the various parking systems, and I would like to be able to see stats like visits, clicks, CTR and revenue for each of them over the full time that I have been moving them around at a fairly granular level (down to a single domain in some cases).

    The more I look at this, the more I want.  Currently, I don't know of any way to look at the results I am getting from domains across monetization systems. Even something fairly basic that let me upload visits, clicks, CTR, RPC, and revenue per domain from various $parking systems would be AWESOME. Throw in a few charts/other bells and whistles and I'd be happy as a frickin' unshucked clam.

    I wonder when domainly will get posts from users other than Axe and Goose?

    Domainly needs some promotion.  Perhaps a contest for free .infos.
