Hi guys,

I was curious... what are some well-known/popular websites out there with uncommon extensions? (well, actually when I say uncommon I just mean NOT .com, .net or .org)

For example, for the .sc TLD I would say whois.sc was one of the most famous, and for .us del.icio.us

What about some of the other extensions?

Ahh yes, Last.fm forgot about that one.

How about the .cc .tv .mobi .ws .biz .am .ac .eu .bz domains? Anyone one of those have a large "famous" website?

Actually, I like mine...

whi.ms
wha.ms
stru.ms
cra.ms
stea.ms
hare.ms
maxi.ms
pri.ms
swi.ms
tri.ms
docksi.de

Only whi.ms is developed at present.

Sorry for the self promotion but there is a reason behind each of these. Plans are:

stru.ms (guitar, mandolin, picking site)
cra.ms (testing, SAT, ACT, Cliffnotes, study aides)
hare.ms (perhaps adult related or a classy arabic beauty site)
tri.ms (dieting or hair styles)
swi.ms (best beaches, olympic class competitions, etc.)
foa.ms (perhaps another travel site, best beaches, or mixed drink recipe)
maxi.ms (perhaps a redirect to Maxim or affiliate site, or French cuisine shopping)
wha.ms (not sure)
stea.ms (definitely a steam cooking site with an emphasis perhaps on the Asian)
pri.ms (online beauty and cosmetic supplies or perhaps ritzy cat/dog pet boutique site)
docksi.de (boat retailer/reseller or seafood restaraunt guide or cooking site)

the problem with the non-major extension is the access.

For example, in china, you can not access to some of the extensions.

ImageShack.us is pretty popular. Or at least it was, I assume it still is.

circa1850 your domains aren't famous (yet perhaps) - so they have no place here, that was pretty shameless.

Thanks everyone else for the links, it's just interesting to see people make something of a uncommon extension. :)

Shameless indeed.

I was going to say del.icio.us (I still get confused as to where the dots go sometimes). bigoo . ws is another popular MySpacer site.

Is it shameless or shameful?:)

I had never heard of many mentioned in the thread. Was the point uncommon or is it now famous? Sorry for the confusion.:notme:

You're welcome for sky.fm. :gn:

No I meant shameless... brazen, forward, blatant, without shame :)

The point was famous/popular domains with uncommon extensions.

I'm not trying to pick on you or anything but I hate SPAM. The tile is "Well-known websites with uncommon TLDs?"

Also in the first post the OP wants to know of "well-known/popular websites". Yours aren't even developed, let alone well-known or popular in anyway.

Please accept my apologies, hate to ruin anyone's mood.
