ICANN and the new gTLDs

Recommended Posts

I dont know if anyone else has been following this peice of news coming from the Internet Coorperation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) about the applicants for new Top Level Domains, the final part of a web address (.com .uk .net ....)

Well today they released the full list of all those that have been applied for was released today. While some of them are terrible and I would laugh if they get through (.asda .bestbuy .shoes .yellowpages) there are some that (depending on moderation) would be quite good to have.
