Making up a list now of all my sites I will be selling off later this month. Probably right after Christmas (hey, it is getting closer, see the countdown clock to the right) as all indications point to google doing a page rank update one or two days before Christmas to have it done by that day. Just have too many sites and I want to start next year with as few sites as possible. Plus I made a list of all my domains I want to unload and will be putting them up on the auction block as a group shortly.
