domain Unusual situation...

[daweller]

Hi, OK this is weird, but...
There is this guy who made a website... this website http://www.krohm.net/bernd.htm

He is basically holding a cute bunny for ransom... ie. if he does not get a million euros in donations by Dec 31st, he will cook and eat the bunny

The site is growing in popularity... it has mentioned in the Austrian press, and recently on Irish radio... the site gets about 3000 hits/day and growing... and this guy , according to the site, has made over 32000 euros.

The site's title is "Save Bernd" ( Bernd is the rabbit )
I checked for the domain savebernd.com, and it was available! So I registered it.

So do guys think this is worth anything? I figure if the guy says " hey man, I was the original creator of the site and concept, I'm gonna sue for the domain! " ... I would just make savebernd.com into sympathy site for bernd the bunny. ie. how dare someone hold a bunny ransom... etc...

Like any domain of this sort, it's value is going to dependent on if it gets any traffic. Here's an off-the-wall idea, how about asking the guy if you can mirror his site at www.freebernd.com. That way it can help his cause, there will be an easier domain to promote, and you could perhaps run an adsense ad on it (win/win).

I highly doubt he has raised so much based on the traffic he has accurred.
