Thnk you’ve got a tight niche?

Single Serving Sites

Lately I’ve noticed a pattern of people building Single Serving Sites, web sites comprised of a single page with a dedicated domain name and do only one thing. Here are a few examples:

Sometimes Red, Sometimes Blue. Sometimes the page is read, sometimes it is blue.

D-E-F-I-N-I-T-E-L-Y helps you spell definitely correctly.

The Abe Vigoda status page. Currently alive.

There are a lot more examples if you click over. Seriously: wtf? Some of them are at least sort of useful, like the one that tells you if the next episode of Lost is a repeat, but there are about 5 million other ways to obtain this information. Can anyone explain this to me? Have people lost their minds? Lost bets? ;)
