What's the deal with them anyway. At first I thought you didn't need to register a domain (sounds more obvious to me now) from the way someoen explained it to me. So can anyone just give me a run down of how it works and hopefully make things more clear?

Basically, a domain name points to a specific computer connected to the Internet. Every computer has a numeric address; a domain name points to that address, so it's easier for people to remember. You'll probably want one if you have a website.
Parked domains are domains that have been bought by a company that specializes in re-selling domain names, with the goal of re-selling them to other people. |

As for add on domains, if you purchase hosting from someone that offers this, you will be allowed to add on a X amount of other domains to your account. And I think it adds as a file in the actual root folder. It more or less depends on the Hosting Control pannel your host uses.
