There has certainly been a lot of news today about new tlds.
TheDomains talked about Momentous Corp (owner of Pool.com) applying for .sucks
Directi spending $30 million on new tlds
and Google posted that they are going for 50 new tlds including .lol
From their blog post
In 2008, ICANN announced a program to expand the number of generic TLDs (think .com, .org, .edu), developed through its bottom-up, multi-stakeholder process, in which we participate. Given this expansion process, we decided to submit applications for new TLDs, which generally fall into four categories:
Our trademarks, like .google
Domains related to our core business, like .docs
Domains that will improve user experience, such as .youtube, which can increase the ease with which YouTube channels and genres can be identified
Domains we think have interesting and creative potential, such as .lol
Who is regging a .lol ?
As far as .sucks goes [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPoGtWEM3jM"]Protect your brand, register a .sucks - YouTube[/ame]
