Yeah I just read about that. Sounds interesting.
Although it will be too expensive for the 'little people', which is a shame as I would have liked to have my own TLD available to sell domain names to others.

I guess it will also open up a new can of worms for websites and companies trying to keep people from using their company name in domain names.

BTW, your "apaddedcell.ftw" might have a different meaning to bikers Laugh

I wonder if there is a way to automatically get the most common names when they go live. I'm sure the cyber squatters are already on it though.

Who needs all this stuff? I highly doubt there will be a great demand, evem .mobi doesn't seem to be as popular as it was predicted.
This is one of the reasons registrars offer discounts on .mobi I know eurodns.com does it.
