.NEW net domains - can you access them ?
 

before you answer, please type in your browser www.gay.xxx

if your browser supports these domains, you'll be taken to a german gay site.

This is the 2nd thread about it, but it may give a better answer to this question.

nada

you can still vote :Graucho

I dont think those extensions will catch on. Theres too many and none are approved ICANN top level domains.

Yes, first, the majority cannot access them, second, those who can, mostly don't now about it.

So basically, IMO they still will be far less popular than even .ws or .cc ( anyone remember beauty.cc sold for 1 million ? )

I would be surprised if the major SEs even listed them... no chance this will work unless they become "official" (real) tlds one day

That'a a good point ( about SE's ) and I really can't see them becoming official.

Yet on the other hand so far almost 20% voted that they can access them.

Really?

I guess google has the plugin.



By the way, I can't access them when I type them in my browser but I can see every one of them I click on from google.

And here's a real doozie... http://www.creditcards.xxx.new.net/

OK, SE's can see them but only with the longer extension.
And an average surfer doesn't know that www.masturbation.xxx = www.masturbation.xxx.new.net

those are just subdomains of new.net, which is btw a NET domain :)

you gotta find some .XXX domains in google to convince me

Nope.... Can't access it from here......
