Any two letter .com is worth well into the six figure range. About what to actually do with it, can’t really think of anything besides just redirecting to WordPress.com. This is more of a vanity domain than anything. About Blo.gs, check out <a href="http://ma.tt/2009/04/blogs-lives-on/#comment-461245" rel="nofollow">this comment</a> by Matt. Seems like he just wanted to keep it running since a number of people still use it. Well Matt certainly beefed up his domain collection with WP.com.
