OMG, OMG.com got Yahoo’d

So how come nobody has trademarked OMG yet? Yahoo will probably try. Active in the domain sector (propping up a cheap domain selling but expensive to renew Yahoo Small Business franchise) the search engine/email utility/all purpose map platform and more company has been buying and selling space the past few months.

But can they develop worth a darn? Yahoo is  the buyer of OMG.com, which sold last week for $80,000, according to Domain Name Wire.

A well-known gossip site moniker, OMG.com shows those picture of starlets on red carpets in Hollywood and talks breathlessly about people you never knew existed. And now it belongs to …Yahoo.

Of course, Yahoo has a history with domain names too big for the ‘Hoo britches. Yahoo sold off contests.com in June for $380,000 after sitting on it for many years. Could Yahoo be the big domains player sleeper after all?
