897 New Domain Extensions Is Coming - .Sex . Adult .Porn .Web .Business etc. etc. Are you going to..
I've just read the news that 897 new domain extensions is coming - .Sex . Adult .Porn .Web .Business etc. etc.
Are you going to jump into this madness? Personally I think this whole mess is because big corporations need money so they came with this ridiculousness and I think that only .com really counts but... yeah, this is the opportunity. I doubt anything I would go for will be available without crazy biding or being already "reserved" by hungry corporations but nonetheless, I'm a bit confused here and not sure about this. What do you think? |

Good arguments have been made as to why adult should stick to .com. We don't want certain groups to pressure .coms to be free of adult content, thus creating a monopoly on 'adult' TLDs.

Oh good...more useless domains. Just what the world needs.
Com is still the most desirable and will continue until .anything becomes obsolete. |

Anyone that thinks these new tlds are useless really has not been paying attention. Get used to it.

Same old story, a few extensions/domainers/registrars will succeed and make bank, majority extensions/domainers/registrars will lose. You will hear about every winner to create the hype. Frank Schilling mentions .XXX @ 06:25

I believe that if you have the .xxx domain you are grandfathered in and automaticallyh have the the other .porn .adult .sex ext. If you don't want them for that same domain they can not and will not be sold to anyone else.

how are they going to be useful? what can they do/offer that any other extension can't? its a desperate money grab by icann to basically get all they can while they can but why? are domain names in general going to be obsolete soon? who is going to buy .camera or .voyage domains (to only mention a couple of the hundreds of useless future extensions)? i can't see there being enough demand to keep these extensions afloat.
