- kmfrk 16y agoAnother no-go domain is .mm[1]. The .ly fad aside, using random, unusual TLDs is something I have a lot of problems seeing the point of. Getting a nice shorturl is fine, but you have to make damn sure that the shorturls will always work.

- zalew 16y agoYeah, Burma, but really there are lots of other. IMO the rule is quite simple - if the tld is under control of a nic in a country having problem with freedom per western standards, better not to depend on it. However bit.ly somehow manages to successfully work regardless the theoretical risk.
