Ask HN: Are the new gTLDs the future of Internet domains?
- trendspotter 13y agoI'm speaking of the new upcoming gTLDs like for example: .business, .fashion, .mortage, .baseball, .movie, .coffee, .pizza, .fitness, .porn, .shopping, .dating, .academy, .club, .forum to name a few. * ICANN Blog http://blog.icann.org/ http://blog.icann.org/ * ICANN FAQ http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/customer-service/faqs/faqs-en http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/customer-service/faq...
- drill_sarge 13y agoFor me it is just a huge cash grab for icann and others. Gosh, look at the pricing.
- shawnk 13y agoI think it will be the future of the internet domains, now we'll know much more about a site just from the domain (.App or .Music) it's time for a change... It may take some (A lot) of getting used to, but things must change.
- amac 13y agoI don't think so. The marketing dollars behind .com are huge and arguably a greater threat to domain names are apps and app stores.
