Bought two domains yesterday: Facebook-image.com and Facebook-images.com

What should I do with them? :)

I thought of 2 ways currently:

  1. download photos/albums from facebook
  2. edit/change photo/cover on facebook

I feel that these domains should be popular enough and I could make good money from them but don't think that I have a good idea for them..

Sorry for dumb question.. just don't know whom to ask else.

Facebook will not like this idea

You'd better lawyer up real quick if you think of making money from this. If you're lucky you'll just get a cease-and-desist letter really soon.

Yeah... he'd better run... fast and far away... :)

I don't think that will stop facebook's lawyer from starting proceedings. But then again, IANAL

Don't spend time on building a product. facebook will sue or cease&desist you for using their name, especially if you plan to make money.

If it's again law to use domains with trademarks in name - then why do domain registrators allow their registering?
