Should I do something with my expiring names?

I have some domain names, each with either the word "text" or "mobile" in the name, one being a .mobi while the rest are .com, that are expiring in a couple of months. I bought them at a time when I was highly interested in jumping into mobile marketing. It never panned out and I don't intend to do much with them anytime soon unless I can get an idea that I'm excited about.

I know there's "flipping", adsense, etc. But I'm not sure what I want to do. I just don't want them to simply expire if there's potential in them.

    Why not you make take those domain and share something about mobile news or mobile marketing services or even selling mobile game and themes wallpaper and mobile ringtones.
    Try to focus on mobile advertisement and mobile sms marketing because every marketer know that mobile web will be the new trend other than social media.

    I know the feeling. I think most on this forum have had this scenario as well. If there is true value in the domain, you never want to just let them just go, but sometimes if you're not going to do anything with it it can just be a distraction.

    Either sell it off or do something with it. I let a few go recently that I had planned to do something with for several years, just never got around to it. I finally got tired of wasting the money each year when I knew it wasn't going to happen this year either.

    As hot as mobile is right now, I am sure there would be willing buyers if you decided to sell.

      You can use some of the automating WP plugins to make them work for you! There are Amazon, Clickbank, YouTube and other plugins you can use for them...it can be well worth the effort.

    Here's a couple of the names:

    mobileshaman
    textmagnate

    Taking into account that these names imply some kind of authority I was wondering if anyone could throw any ideas my way as to what to do with them.

    If nothing else I'll consider looking at WP plugins for now.

    Are you planning on renewing them? If not maybe you should try flipping them.

    I'm probably going to renew them assuming that I decide not to let them sit for another year.
