domains .Science soars to 10,000 registrations in three hours

[News]

Famous Four Media launched the .Science top level domain name this morning, and registration activity has been brisk so far.

At roughly three hours after launch, 9,680 .science domain names have been registered. The company expects the number to top 10,000 within the next half hour.

Why is .science doing so well? It’s not all rocket science: some registrars are giving the domain names away free or cheap, spurring extra demand. Kind of like .casa and .work, why not try it out for a year?

This reminds me of the .xyz boom. There wasn't really a high interest in the specific TLD, but many registrars (including Network Solutions, I think) offered free .xyz domains to owners of the .com of the same name.
