On: Vice website is shutting down

I guess the lesson is, never give up a domain.

Kinda what I took away too. Which is a bummer because it raises the costs of trying things out, at least on new domains.

I guess using subdomains of a main site isn't that bad an alternative.

I had a domain in early smartphone days for a mobile app that served up some Canadian Broadcasting Corporation content. I eventually abandoned the app/domain and the CBC snapped it up - so that's about the best-case scenario.

What a letdown!
