Wondering what people thought of the above name that I just picked up.

.LA is now the official internet address for Los Angeles, the world's first city to receive this accolade. It used to belong to Laos, but since about a month ago it is officially the domain extention for Los Angeles.

Every single extention is taken, except .md, .hn. & .jobs. Even subdomains like uk.com, uk.net, us.com & de.com is taken.

Could be a good name for a business in LA that sells DVDs.

What are your opinions on this one?

I personally think there is huge potential in LA, others will poo-poo it like they do mobi, tv, bz etc.

Yours specifically is ok, but the plural s kind of hurts it in my book. I also think that names should be geared toward extensions, but that is just me.

I will say 50 when it takes off, right now, not much more then reg fee.

Do you have any reference for that?

I own several .LA names. The registry has been spouting that "official internet address for Los Angeles" stuff for two years that I know about, but has done nothing to make it so. There was a change of promoters about a year ago so maybe there has been some movement since then, but I can find nothing on Google. But it still is really Laos and always will be (and .TV still is Tuvalu, a tiny island in the Pacific.) That is not a problem.

I think there is a chance .LA names will be very popular, but I want to see where LA city or county has "adopted" the extension. Such a move would be quite important.

If you go to www.la, it has that info, plus in other threads on NP mention it as well with references.

Thanks for the comments. Any others?
