  I was working on a WP blog and wordpress was acting up and I wasn’t happy with the blog. So, I decided to delete the blog and start over. However, the domain that the blog was under is no longer available. I would think that if the site was deleted, the old domain would be available to the public again. But it’s not. Any thoughts?
