Great auction - nice bidding James.

 

[MillersCrossing]

[GoneWalkabout]

Do we have to fly QANTAS!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Len]

Lol...... When I saw a 4th bidder jump in at the last minute I immediately thought of Jimbo and millers.

 

[MillersCrossing]

Do we have to fly QANTAS!!!!!!!!!!!!

that would be a nightmare for everyone - everyone seeing me board the flight with an oxygen tank!!!

i have always loved Australia as a country and its people/sense of humor........owning a piece of ozzie internet real estate is a fantastic second best to living there :kickass:

 

[Michelle]

Imo what a great return for a reg-fee name. It dosen't do to be too greedy.

If im happy and buyer is happy ............. :bingo:

Great sale since .tv is completely unknown to ordinary Australians and would not even be a top 6 extension in Australia.

You joking?

Did you visit?

Look who is the Registrant :

[Dean]

Well I am not from WA lol. Since tourism WA is using it then I think it could become known here and value will go up.

Some of the biggest advocates of .Tv here at Namepros are Australian as well.

Love the idea of TV 'not being in the top 6 extensions' - that's somewhat a flippant comment.

Are there any facts behind this statement or is it that you personally don't consider TV to be in the top six?

 

[Dean]

I do, I am talking about in Australia. .com.au, .net.au, .org.au, .com, .net, .org are top 6 in Australia IMO. I like .tv personally and I think worldwide it is right after com, org and net.

Completely unknown - probably not true. I think a good percentage of people would have seen it used before. In a large part because foxtel promoted a .tv for a fair while before moving to .com.au and some tv programs use it.

Not in the top 6 extensions in Australia -true.

I would say the most widely known extensions in Australia are something like this,

.com.au
.com
.gov.au
.org
.net
.org.au
.edu.au

I'm guessing .tv might be in the top 20 or 30 extensions here, but the usage is 99% from tv shows - ie it is a niche.

Here is a listing of the most popular sites in Australia,

This extension is an awful long way from "right after com, org and net".

Well done on the sale. Its nice when buyer and seller are both happy at the result.

If you have any more like that could you PM me your list.

Snoop foxtel is still promoting not "used to"
you might want to check out fox8.tv used by Fox,

theres plenty of .tv in use here and seems to be growing if advertising is anything to go by,

take healthcare.tv - an ozzie website i predict great things for this site - so far the best developed site by far from a np member here (although I aim to challenge that!!!)

take idevelop.tv - an ozzie developer with major league premos
take the owner of beer.tv......

the list continues........

given their forward way of thinking, i am happy to place my bets on canberra
