Journal/13 Thermidor CCXIV from Evan Prodromou

I recently blathered on about how much I love the A9 toolbar. So imagine my happy surprise when I found Alexadex.com, a fantasy stock market game in which the prices of domains are keyed to their Alexa "reach per million" numbers. For example, prodromou.name on Alexadex is priced at $4.

I think this is pretty cool, but as I go twiddling around the site, I can't help wonder: don't we already have a fantasy stock market for domain names? (And, yes, that is a referral URL up there... I get $1000 pretend dollars for everyone who signs up for Alexadex with my referral number.)
