A digital graveyard for items that were once desired, but ultimately left behind. When online shoppers add items to their virtual carts but fail to complete the checkout process, resulting in a haunting reminder of what could have been. Abandoned carts are the modern-day equivalent of window shopping, but with less physical effort and more emotional baggage.
Abandoned cart syndrome is a common affliction for those who dabble in domain name shopping, with many enthusiasts adding dozens of potential website names to their cart, only to abandon them all when they realize they're not actually going to start a business anytime soon.
