What's In A Domain Name? $2.6 Million for the owner of Pizza.com

Switched is reporting that a U.S. man just sold the domain name pizza.com for $2.6 million to an anonymous buyer.

Back in 1994, Chris Clark had the foresight (or good luck) to register the domain name Pizza.com. The story goes that he had originally hoped that the domain name would secure a contract with a pizza company for his consulting company. That deal fell through, and boy must he be glad they did.

The domain name vodka.com recently sold for $3 million.
